It took @Sarbarella to remind me 9 months after the fact why I was helping her to sheath these pickles for the special screening of Spinal Tap. It's a throwback to the airport scene with Derek Smalls.

Think was radish of some sort. It was sweet.

Achar & fried peanuts

Not the most appetizing starter, but still, it tasted better than it looks. Staring at the massive chandelier helped. Even if I looked creepy doing it 👀.

Palate cleanser?

I think the white disks were radish slices. Not sure what the purple veg was but I preferred it to the former.
