My wife and I have been twice to D.O.M., once for lunch and once for dinner. The second time (dinner) the experience was mixed.
ReplyDeleteThe couvert was overpriced and oversimple. Nothing worth the price.
The main course, a fish dish, was outstanding, a very creative and exquisite combination of ingredients, including Amazonian cassava broth.
The dessert was indifferent.
The sommelier's recommended wine did not go well with the dish.
In all, it was a one out of five.
I have eaten better in Lima (you know where), San Francisco, New York, and Paris, all for less.
