We enjoyed another fabulous dinner at James on Main in Hackettstown, NJ. We enjoyed an awesome wood fired wagyu strip steak with cauliflower and stilton croquettes, caramelized shallot, and chipotle demi-glace. It had a beautiful char to it. We also enjoyed wood fired U8 Gulf shrimp with chili relleno, peekytoe crab, and guajillo sauce; cracklin’ pork belly with local plum chutney, mirin wine, and five spice syrup, and organic scarlet yams; duck confit and local chorizo sausage; burrata with local beets, empress plum compote, toasted pecans, and aged balsamic vinegar; roasted kabocha squash salad. For dessert we enjoyed an awesome chocolate panna cotta with concord grape coulis, spiced nut toffee crunch, and whipped goat cheese. It all went great with a couple of excellent red wines.
