My mom & I attended KRLD's 82nd anniversary party last night at the Dallas arboretum. We really enjoyed ourselves- great catered food, full open bar, notable speakers, pretty flowers & a great place to people watch! One of the highlights for me was the avocado bar: They served up a half of a Haas Avocado still in the rine sprinkled with salt and drizzled with olive oil. Then you choose from a variety of toppings to "stuff" your avocado like black bean & corn salsa, shrimp and cucumber ceviche, pineapple pico, bacon!, sour cream or habanero cream.
While the concept was amazing, the habanero cream was freaking HOT! I can stomach hot food (thai food, super hot salsa, etc), but for your average eater, I know they had to be turned off. This stuff had a serious kick & definitely should have come with a warning. But, I really liked the idea.
After all the salty and spicy food, we were craving some dessert. We went to the dessert station & they had run out- no plan B, just plain out! My mom & I were joking that we would throw some butter & cinnamon sugar on some tortillas & come up with something! They were still serving dinner, so people were not happy that they ran out that early.
Bummer...
