Third Annual Feast of the Seven Fishes

For the record, here's what we ate (to the best of my recollection) at the Third Annual Feast of the Seven Fishes:

1. Cheese plate
   
2. Bacon wrapped dates
   
3. Yaquina Bay oysters on the half shell with bloody mary granite
   
4. Gravlox on wasabi rye toast points with citrus creme fraiche
   
5. Prawns sauteed with fresh basil, white wine, and garlic
   
6. Devilled crab cakes with New Orleans style remoulade
   
7. Whole grilled bluefish
   
8. Pasta con sarde (sardine pasta)
   
9. Mussels with garlic, white wine, butter and lotsa crusty bread
   
10. Grilled prawns wrapped in proscuitto and basil
    
11. And for dessert, Tiramisu, Rum (!!) Babas, Anise Biscotti, Pignolta (pine nut cookies), Truffles, and Cannolli
    

And--yes--that's eight dishes, but only seven fishes. And--yes--fishes is thems that live in the deep blue sea, be they gilled or in shells, by our standards at least. Sticklers for accuracy should see the bartender for a spanish coffee before entering a complaint.

(I'll see if I can't get Nick to post the wine pairings.)
