hip to the hop and you don't stop

tonight i'm going to a pop-up restaurant with camilla, jon's sister. it's a restaurant "installation" that's here for 2 months and then gone. it's the restaurant equivalent of a travelling circus, except it doesn't travel. it just gets dismantled. anyways, on the menu, there's this:

roast guinea fowl, carrot gallete, salsify, poached date.

now i have a question for you. what kind of ingredient is salsify?! that sounds like the best thing i've ever heard of. that is all.

*edit: camilla actually ordered the fowl, and turns out, salsify is a starchy tuber like a parsnip.
