Stunning Secret Supper: Wolvesmouth

Last Wednesday night, 11 lucky diners and I converged at a secret location to enjoy this month's installment of Wolvesmouth. Submit your e-mail to a mysterious mailing list. Cross your fingers that you get picked. Receive an address that you're asked not to share with anyone. Feel special. Gorge.

I see that some of you are still confused. Let me break it down for you.

It's a dinner party with strangers! With 10 to 15 courses of beautiful food that will totally wow you! At a private residence! At the end of your meal, you're given an envelope to leave an amount that you feel your meal was worth.

Who is the man cooking in the den? The Wolf is Craig Thornton -- professional chef, modern food artist, and all-around badass.

Pan-fried brioche.

When your bread is this good, you have high expectations for the rest of your meal.

Corn soup, cotija, aleppo gelee, lime, corn fritter.

I love corn. I love cheese. I love fritters. I love a little kick. This was a bowl of love!

Peach, nectarine, chorizo piquillo puree, almond, Basque cheese, chorizo, sherry gastrique.

I hate having to fight other people to get bits and pieces of charcuterie, fruit, and nuts on a communal platter. There is no fighting at Wolvesden. You get your own!

Smelt, fried green tomato, buttermilk ranch.

A little taste of the South fancified! Mine was gone in a flash!

Squash blossoms, Marscapone zucchini duxelles, melon, baby squash, balsamic.

It was like this bowl was freshly picked from a garden...and then stuffed with cheese!

Tuna, tomato, basil buds, uliva olive oil, wasabi peas, white soy.

More garden freshness paired with freshness from the sea. The tuna was a cool taste of fabulousness.

Lobster, potato, chive, crème fraîche.

My favorite dish of the night! The potato was so special -- smoother, thinner, yet creamier and more buttery than mashed potatoes! And generous chunks of lobster lurked inside!

Pork cheek, baby cabbage, caramelized onion, dill, pretzel, mustard.

So tender, so delicate, and so flavorful!

Cucumber slush.

Behold! Bright green palate cleanser!

Lamb, Turkish eggplant, watermelon cucumber, watermelon tartare, yogurt, rosemary.

It's food masquerading as art! Cucumbers pretending to be teeny-tiny watermelons! Watermelons sneaking around as pickled peppers! Tricky, tricky!

Mulberry, elderberry, fig, salted brown "butta la creme," croquant.

My second-favorite dish of the night! Who knew that something buttery, tart, sweet, creamy, and crunchy could be so good? The textures, the flavors, everything -- super!

Cherry sherbet, almond cake, cherry pop rocks, almond cream.

Just enough pucker. Just enough crumbly sweetness. Quite lovely.

I feel so fortunate to have attended this dinner. Shout-out to Chou Down for being my date for the night and to Kung Food Panda, The Roaming Belly, @LIMER35, and @theReAlexHaas for being fun dining companions at our end of the table.

Thank you so much, @wolvesmouth and @dimsumpup, for the incredible experience.
