The Minnesota State Fair returns in full force next month, bringing with it scores of foods on a stick. The powers that be at the fair would be smart to add these chocolate dipped baby bananas with sugar coated fennel seeds on a pretty, twisty stick, and some mini-cheeseburgers on a stick. I wish I could say I created these, but the truth is we had our summer work party today at the Chambers Hotel downtown and we scored one of the final party menus including Jean-Georges Vongerichten's awesome food before they switch over to a D'Amico kitchen soon. The candied fennel seeds are ultra-crunchy and the banana insides are super creamy and they should always be together. We also enjoyed a host of savory appetizers, like this mini-cheeseburger, chicken samosas, mushroom egg rolls in a galangal emulsion (I have galangal emulsion every day, don't you?) and tuna rolls. Good stuff.
