A pleasant surprise on the first day of classes....
Homeplate's dinner menu this evening was a quite a delight!
The citrus garlic scallops were harmoniously paired with a delicate coconut rice. The cashews in the rice added a nuttiness that complimented the flavor of the coconut and did well to contrast the tender texture of the scallops, which were cooked to perfection in a sweet and light sauce. I couldn't have asked for more on my first day of classes. . .
For the first time in many terms at Dartmouth, I decided to try Homeplate's famous white bean cakes with pineapple salsa, and was very pleased with the many layers of flavor that I tasted with every bite. The flavor of the tangy pineapple salsa paired nicely with the smoky peppers in the white bean cake. 5 stars
For the first day of the term, Homeplate set the bar very high--will they be able to maintain this standard for the rest of the term???

Sorry dude, I'm an '09 now in grad school at Dartmouth and grad students don't have DBA. Also, its time and place kinda passed. I turned it over to an '11 when I graduated but she seemed to lose interest after making a couple posts. But, thanks for the kind words.
