A Dinner Date

After working a good 10 hours in the kitchen yesterday, I was most relieved to find my boyfriend had made late dinner plans for us with his best friend and fiance, who also happens to be best friend of mine here in this great lil city. After cooking all day for others (and getting paid!) I walked in their door to warm friends, good food and an immediate full to the brim, glass of red. The gal pal, prepared a shrimp, spinach and feta rice bowl, topped with a scallop. It was delicious. The addition of the pine-nut was a must. Do try and do share and do try and share with a glass of Marques de Caceres, a tasty 'Rioja" wine, 2008, and cheap enough!

The scallop addition was their idea which they dusted with a mole seasoning and seared. The asparagus you see on the side of the bowl, was leftover from work, my offering!
