Siena Restaurant @ the Meritage

Basil Pesto, Fresh Figs, Point Reyes Blue Cheese, and Balsamic Reduction

Everything that I love is combined in this dish.  Point Reyes blue cheese is just so amazing and that coupled with fresh figs, I feel like this could have been my entree.  It was thin crust so extremely easy to eat.  I really need to try making my own pizza at home.


Steak Frites
Grilled Flat Iron Steak Fried and House
Pomme Frites with Brown Shallot Butter

Ths steak was so-so.  It was a little more medium -well than medium.  The fries were the highlight.  They were really buttery.  Plus they soaked up some of the juice from the steak.  Sooo good.


Ravioli & Pumpkin Bisque
Ricotta and Spinach Ravioli, Roasted Pumpkin
Cream Sauce, Basil and Asiago Cheese

I usually never order ravioli at restaurants, but in my attempts to eat less meat, I decided to try this out.  The sauce was so creamy that I gobbled the whole plate really fast.  Actually, maybe I ate too fast because I had a stomach ache later that night. That was not such a smart idea since I had planned to be in a bathing suit and swim after dinner.  I was a whale-y


Pistachio Ice Cream

The ice cream was pretty good.  It was pretty similar to something I have made before.  Nothing fancy.  I just wanted something sweet to eat after my meal and I love pistachios.
