Well, that's some good info then. If I had been told that instead of not having emails answered I would not worry as much as I have. Understand, I am traveling in excess of 2 hours for this meal with someone who is traveling 1 hour to get to me..so we can meet someone in PA that is traveling there to meet us. And I took off work. Lots of logistics I have to plan for So Im not trying to be a pain in the ass..just trying to figure out what's going on.

I saw that and that is all well and good but Im still wondering where the menu for tomorrow is. It is usually posted on the Monday before the event on Shola's blog and I don't see it as of now.

It better not have been because here it is 10:20 pm the night before and I have no update from Shola about this. I took off work tomorrow to go so..this would be a problem for me.

Shopper's Vineyard in Clifton, NJ DOES have it..I know because I just bought it. They also have Luxadro Maraschino as well. It's better to order on the website..if they dont have it in stock they will email you and tell you when they will. You will have to pick it up though.

I work at 700 Plaza Drive.. Niko Niko isnt bad..and knowing they are Korean will steer you in the right direction there.

That's it! Wow. I need more than one though

K8, We had a presentation using this type of plate while in Chicago and my wife has mentioned the plate to me every day since then. We went last October. I think she will like it. Anyway, it's a plate typically used to present small tastings and I do feel like the biggest ass not knowing where to get it. Just so everyone knows, my idea is not to wrap this and make it a gift in that sense. I'd like to prepare one of her favorite bites (Consumme with Fois and Caramel) in this dish.

Thanks GourmetLight$, If the center well was a lot smaller, it would be perfect. You see these bowls/plates on ICA all of the time..especially from Mario Batali.

I'm looking for a bit of help here.. I've driving myself crazy looking for the following piece: Click Here Is there a name for such a bowl? If so, please tell me and/or tell me where I can find it. It's for a birthday present to my wife. Thanks! P.S. I would order it from the site I linked to but they need a TIN and I am not in possession of one

Bangkok Garden is closer..but it's not really that far of a walk to get to Wondees. There was that Peruvian place Jason was talking about in a thread somewheres back..it is closer than both Bangkok Garden and Wondees I believe.

Info here..

I've seen bottled Curry Ketchup..hell I just had some a few hours ago. Short and sweet, my Aunt and Uncle went to Germany and they brought me back a bottle of Heinz EXTRA HOT Curry Ketchup. It is not even close to hot but darn good on a Brat.

River View East makes a GREAT dog..it's right across from Marcal and is next to the Elmwood Barn.

It would be nice to have this kind of food at a JAPW show. I'd be more willing to make the drive down to Rahway if there was Looks good!

OH! Look at that final picture..the gelatin is calling me. I will attempt to find a way to make this..sourcing is a problem. If I find a way to do so, Ill let you know.

Ha, in the last picture posted by Jason..you can see the mold Rachel made for us. The dismount of the mold was also another great moment during the evening. You got hot tea and willing participants? Anything can happen!

The most amazing part of the dance was the guy in charge that made sure that his charges were kept safe as steaming pots of food whizzed by in "We are in the weeds!" speed. Top job by him..

Weeeee! I really enjoyed the texture and flavor of those noodles. The rigidity of the "noodle" is really a highlight of the night for me. Also, the squid was absolutely great.

Anyways, the highlight of the evening was the idiot that decided he needed to park where the kids doing the Lion dance were getting ready. He proceeded to yell at the poor guy who organizes the dance and he made a complete mockery of himself. Why..why oh why..is a parking spot worth getting into a fight with someone over? Unless it's Hoboken Can someone tell me if the Cold Tofu noodles are a regular menu item?

Well, that was great! Thanks to everyone involved for putting it together. The jello mold was certainly the best part of the evening

Ive sent in my payment I just want to know if it was gotten

Im in. Will there be any reminders sent out when we approach the date?

I have been there. There is a comedy club next door to it (Banana's?) and we sat at the bar before the show. Food was Sysco quality and the drinks were not good. I mentioned that I knew other people who had gone there because they had been there more recently than I.

You dont want to go ANYWHERE near this place. Check the health checks thread..you will see why. Also, I know people who have gone there and they said it was horrid.

Round 3..fight! I went into with mixed feelings. I have a HUGE aversion to nuts in any food that is designated as "dinner". I do cook with nuts..quite often..but it is more a requisite of my job than anything else. Yes I taste..I hate it..but it's my job. Moving on.. I have made 2 of Hzrt's dishes before (Lemon Chicken and the Pork dish) and this..was the best. In the process, I immediately noticed the comforting smell of the toasted peanuts and I knew why they were there and why they were being toasted. It adds a entirely new dimension to the flavor of the dish..it ties everything up and reminds you of real cooking. Sichuan peppercorn = Yum and me wanting to die from sneezing. I dont know why that happens to me. The dried red peppers were procured from a very good to great place near me. This was great. You rule!
