Valentine's Day Dinner at Trax Cafe

A memorable night, that's we hoped people would go away with this year. Along with a great Valentine's Day meal from Trax Restaurant and Cafe. Judging by the number of diners that came out to celebrate at Trax, I'd have to say it was a good night. The Filet Mignon seemed to be most popular, but the special Prix Fixe menu had enough variety to satisfy demands of most couples. Chef Waxman, Dudney Reynolds and Tom Groff were kept busy getting the delicious food flowing to the filled dinning room.
The Lamb Chops have been a long time favorite and signature dish of Trax, but the Grilled Salmon, succulent Duck (a favorite of mine),
and the Scallops with Risotto proved equally crowd pleasing.
There was enough foreplay to tease the pallet and get juices flowing with choice of Crab Mornay, Lobster Ravioli, Lobster soup taster or a nice selection of salads from traditional Caesar to fresh Mozzarella with roasted peppers or roasted Beets and Goat Cheese Timbale.
Diner's were finally treated to a sweet array of tempting desserts, which included two huge strawberries dipped a rich chocolate b
ath surrounded by coconut macaroons, lemon tarts, chocolate truffles and almond biscotti.
