  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. I'm looking for a bit of help here..

    I've driving myself crazy looking for the following piece:

    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 :)

  4. 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?

  5. 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!
