Hand-cut Fettucine, Lobster-uni Emulsion, Oscietra Caviar at L2O, Chicago


Probably the most delicious pasta dish I have tasted. This is handcut fettucini in lobster and uni emulsion with oscietra caviar. The pasta was surprisingly light and perfectly flavored. The uni and lobster emulsion; despite literally being nothing more than foam was big on flavor. It captured the essence of its ingredients; briny, salty and umami. The caviar.. oh the caviar... how can I even describe it. With or without the Michelin decorations, the meal I had in this restaurant has truly been the meal of meals for me. (Aside from my mom's cooking of course - which will always be irreplaceable)
