Dinner was at the Proef to eat some of Chef Sean meals. We have never been there for dinner, only talked to him about what he was planning. Janie and Linda had lunch there earlier and made reservations for dinner.
Arriving at 7:00 there were only two other parties present and we picked a table at the window. We thought about eating outside but it was starting to get cool.
Starting with a bottle of wine, we reviewed the menu. The pork tenderloin dish looked good and we could see two examples of it on the table beside us. But, when Sean came to take our order and described the other selections in detail, changes had to be made.
Linda and I decided to share a platter that was a combination of tapas: two kinds of a special ham somewhat like prosciutto from pigs who only eat acorns and truffels, meatballs, roast beef, haddock, tiny shrimp, a tapinade, and bread. Sean told us he had a little of the pork left over and he could add that with a mushroom gravy. So, we had that plus Linda added a few green beans. Janie ordered the vegetarian lasagne (she said it was the best she had ever had) and Dan stayed with the pork tenderloin.
Sean came by several times to check on us and to make sure we liked what we had ordered. He's a really nice guy. Later he showed us a picture of his girlfriend - very nice.
We finished with coffee and fresh mint tea for Linda.
A good way to finish the Bauer's Soest visit.
