Abacus

I went to Abacus last night. It is Copper River Salmon season and Chef Rathbun always does Copper River so well. He did not disappoint last night. We started with martinis then lobster shooters (my fave). They had the perfect bite them. Then came the Copper River Salmon. All three of us ordered it. While it was good and cooked perfectly, there was a smoky saltiness to the salmon that overwhelmed the overall taste. The serrano grits were so spicy they became all all you could taste. None of this stopped me from cleaning my plate. Finished the meal with a nice muscat. Good dinner with good friends. All you can ask for on a Saturday night. :)
