A Morsel

mor·sel/ˈmôrsəl/Noun

1. A small piece or amount of food; a mouthful.
2. A small piece or amount.


A Morsel is all you need to fall in love. A long the way in America we engraved a "bigger is better" attitude including what's on our plates. But what if something is as amazing as it should be? You should only need a bite, or you will lose that orgasmic effect. One bite - fall in love, possibly get a little flustered and return to your drink in hand. It's an amazing concept to indulge without gluttony. And that's what it's about for a lot of foodies who fork out (no pun intended) a lot of money to get a good, smaller sized meal. My mom always said I would become broke, fat, and for what? A small plate of some kind of magical food? It was beyond that for me as it is for a lot of people people who feel the same about good food. It was the flustered feeling only food could give me for that second in time that I could remember forever.


 
Foie Gras with fresh strawberries, boiled rhubarb and whipped creme friache. 
Two or three bites to get into heaven.
