Tonight I went to Jardiniere on Grove Street. My coworker Patrick was invited to a dinner hosted by Wyeth for a teleconference about a new drug called Relistor, a drug for opiate induced constipation. Anyways, so he invited me too and I figured I should start learning about US drugs again plus it’s hard to pass up a free dinner.
The dinner was a 3-course meal with three choices for each course. For an appetizer, I had the salad.

The vegetarian risotto. The foamy stuff around the risotto was interesting.

Ricotta cheesecake with raspberry sorbet. The cheesecake was nice and light.

The teleconference started around 7pm. It was pretty interesting as they used their cell phones to dial in to the conference and then used a bluetooth speaker device to broadcast the lecture in the room. Cool technology these days.
Only medical professionals can have dinner while listening to a talk about constipation…
