Chicken with Young Ginger


This is the surprise of surprises of the night. Simple enough, it is an old fashion almost rustic dish. Sometimes it is this kind of things that best showcase the skill of a chef. There is nowhere to hide with this simplicity. The ginger is sourced well and then marinated for a long time. When combined with the chicken, the flavour merged into something greater than their sum. Against all the great dishes of the night, the ginger in this plate was the most bitterly fought over.
