Disclosure: I was invited to a complimentary dinner to try the gluten-free menu at Wink & Nod. I wasn’t obligated to blog about it, but it was so delicious that I wanted to share.
Last month Ben and I had the opportunity to attend an amazing gluten-free dinner for Boston-area bloggers at Wink & Nod, a unique restaurant & bar in the South End that features a rotating kitchen. That means every six months a new chef takes up residence there to serve their own menu alongside Wink & Nod’s cocktails and other libations. Right now Chef Patrick Enage is cooking his Akinto menu, which is heavily influenced by his Filipino heritage and features many gluten-free items. You can read more about the chef and his menu here. Also, you might want to get over there soon, because he’ll only be there through the end of the summer!
The dinner at Wink & Nod was one of the best restaurant meals I’ve ever had. (You might think I don’t eat out much because I’m so busy cooking myself, but you’d be wrong! I have always loved eating out and do it way more than I should, so I’ve been to my fair share of great restaurants.) Everything we tried was both delicious and beautiful, which, as a wanna-be food stylist, I really appreciated. Each dish was built with contrasting flavors, colors, and textures that made the food really satisfying and interesting at the same time.
