blackbird in collingswood
By
It was late, and Susan and I had just opened a bottle of Clos Baudoin 1989…and we were hungry.
There aren’t a lot of restaurants I’d trust with this wine, but Alex Capasso’s Blackbird in Collingswood seemed like a good bet.
Susan started with Thai Chicken Spring Rolls, and I had Scallop seared with a light Lobster Sauce to start. For the main course, Susan had a Scallop dish, and I had a smokin’ filet of Halibut with Chinese Eggplant and Ginger Sauce.
The wine was perfect with just about everything – particularly the Scallops and Halibut dishes, proving (once again) that “sweet” wines can often be very versatile.
