Description
Day 10 of 10 days of desserts to celebrate the upcoming holiday season! With this, we are done! Today's dessert is Chocolate Rice Stones (with tuile and red curry marinated strawberries) from Holland America's "A Taste of De Librije" night (aboard the ms Eurodam, but also available on the ms Rotterdam). De Librije is a 3 Michelin star restaurant in the Netherlands, and the food was recreated that night aboard the cruise. Apparently the De Librije chef had been onboard before to ensure that the dishes were up to standard and tasted the sae, and taught the chefs himself how to make some of his signature dishes.This dessert is not very sweet and more on the mild side. The "sand" around the strawberries is made from rice. Supposedly the strawberries had been marinated in red curry, but I really didn't taste much of any curry. My favorite part was the chocolate tuile!

Although some parts were a little on the bland side, overall it was great! It was fun to eat and see this arrangement, and the chocolate parts were definitely yummy!

Thanks! I think the small things around it are actually ground up, dried rice, though they do look a lot like sugar huh?

Thanks! While it was overall a mild dish, it was a great way to finish the prix fixe dinner, both for the tummy and for eye candy!

Definitely! I love prix fixe meals since you don't have to think, and usually they only put their most popular choices on there anyways!

It's basically a rice and cream-like mochi! It doesn't have much flavor, but it goes fairly well with the chocolate and strawberries.
