Restaurant Session (in Deidesheim): Restaurant Riva

For lunch, we stayed at our hotel and went to restaurant Riva. Cozy, with a big glass window giving to the garden (on a hot day, with a very nice air conditioning working inside).

As aperitif, I asked for a gin tonic - perfect for a Summer day.

Roger had a sparkling wine from the region.
 
Bread, butter and olive oil.
 
Foie gras, peach, morel and madeira sauce.

With brioche.
 
Roger had a Balik salmon tartare, citric fruitas and avocado.

As main dish, grilled rib eye from txogitxu 'old cow' - great taste!

As side dishes, sweet potatoes fries and green asparagus.

Roger's main dish: yellowfin tuna with pak choi, capers, olives taggiasca and saffron risotto.

And, matching a very warm day, ice cream for dessert :-)
