Collage--St. Augustine

Outstanding Dining Ahead

I have been salivating about dining at Collage for more than six months.  OpenTable secured my reservations and our request was met.  

We arrived a few minutes early expecting to enjoy a great martini...but to our disappointment, they do NOT serve liquor....only wine and beer.   My dining companions do not drink wine or beer so they were left with water, tea or coffee.  

Roasted Garlic Spread

Our server began with my glass of wine and brought their rolls and roasted garlic to the table.  While enjoying, we browsed the menu.   My friend chose the Escargot for their appetizer....Tender Snails Sautéed With Mushrooms And A Brandy Cream Sauce Served In A Puff Pastry Shell.

On to the entrées!    Fresh Black Grouper--Lightly Coated In A Parmesan, Pecan & Brown Sugar Crust Then Baked. Finished With A Beurre Blanc, Diver Caught Sea Scallops-- Pan Seared Scallops Over Butternut Squash Puree And Brussel Sprout Chiffonade Finished With House Cured Bacon Lardons, Bartlett Pear And Pomegranate Gastrique and Homemade Lobster Ravioli-- Lobster Stuffed Ravioli With Sautéed Shrimp In A Pesto Cream Sauce & Topped With A 5 Oz. Lobster Tail.

Each of our entrées were perfectly prepared...outstanding flavors.
