I made chicken bourguignon (my hubby and I aren't big beef eaters) recently for the first time and when he walked in the door from work he said he felt like he was walking into a fine restaurant, it smelled so good. <br /><br />Your picture looks nice. I know what you mean though - my husband always says that our dinner is getting cold while I'm trying to get a good picture. :)The Domestic Adventurerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03771614518019574702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778802865313625485.post-53225445861080926962010-02-27T09:37:22.970-08:002010-02-27T09:37:22.970-08:00I, too, think you did a wonderful job with the pla...I, too, think you did a wonderful job with the plating. This dish is really hard to photograph because of its color. I add a tablespoon of tomato paste to mine to tone down the purple color of the wine.
