Heirloom Tomatoes and Summer…Perfect together

I was lamenting the high price and lack of flavor of a lot of produce this summer yesterday.
Sharon Waxman waxes poetic on the Berkeley Bowl Marketplace in "You think you’ve got tomatoes" (today’s New York Times. This marketplace currently offers some 50 different tomatoes, 20 heirloom, 20 regular, 10 type od cherry tomatoes.
An heirloom tomato salad is essential to a ‘Steamed Manilla Clams and Rock Shrimp’ appetizer part of a 5 course tasting menu offered by Chef Ken Trickilo at Napa Valley Grille in Paramus, New Jersey.
The tasting menu is offered for dinner Monday through Thursday (food only: $55.00 per person, food and wine pairing: $85.00 per person). To wet your appetite the fifth course is Glenn Schwabik’s Creme Caramel.
