Today’s post comes courtesy of one of my fave tapas joints in Orange County Juliette Kitchen and Wine Bar (previously reviewed HERE).

  This time I was able to sample a plethora of dishes having visited with my posse instead of just le bf. A bit of Euro/Asian influence marries flavors in Juliette’s menu of rustic, earthy ingredients like their grilled pork belly salad with pickled shallots in a red wine vinaigrette and grilled octopus with persimmon and celery root.

Must Get

But the stars of Juliette’s dining menu would HAVE to be their selection of incredibly decadent desserts. We ordered one of each and sadly my ravenous dining companions devoured all 4 selections before I could even snap any pix! Boooooooo for sabotaged blog posts, yayyyyyyyy for yummy in my tummy! Seriously y’all, cardamom panna cotta with pear and sugar-plumped sultanas is now my last dying wish! Well, at least before year’s end 😀
 

Bon appétit mes amis!
