S & I Smash the Mold

On March 5th the Upper West Side Supper Club 2011 competition entered a new phase.  S & I created an event of truly unprecedented quality and proportions.  With the help of a Sterno fireplace and a buxom waitress they created a pop-up haute restaurant.  The appetizers, which consisted of baked brie in pastry, shrimp wrapped in pancetta, and asparagus (wrapped in prosciutto, naturally!) were delicious.  The main course and contest entry was a beef and barley stew that scored particularly well in the prep cookery department (one diner wrote in a "5+").  Overall S & I took a decisive lead with 29.1 points.  (Apologies for the lack of pictures--I think they are in Italy right now.  I will post when they get back.)
