How long of a drive is it up to Ferndale from Seattle? I have been mulling over going up there to get my knives sharpened. Ben

From the Chapelle show: "What the f*!$ is a parsnip?" I dig parsnips, they certainly have a distinctive flavor and I can understand why some may not like them. I enjoy mixing them up with some potatoes, onions, and carrots to roast along with a chicken. Ben

I think that the issue in question used a bunch of different writers to cover all the french restaurants. Who knows if the writer is credible or not. Perhaps she caught them on a bad night or perhaps she is a tasteless heathen!!!!! I have no opinion since I have not eaten at BM, but I know some people who have good taste and like it. pssst, that is you guys. Ben

Saucy! I think it is awesome that they served a floater. Ben

Great! Would you mind posting them to the recipe archive? I would love to try some out. Ben

Cool! It is like having our own local Fat Guy to roast coffee! Ben

Yeah, I made them and posted my thoughts in the thread MsRamsey linked above.

I can finish a bottle of wine, but: Beep beep crash!

I think in Washington, the key part is 'passenger area'. If you stick it in your trunk, it should be cool. People with hatchbacks though should be careful, since it is an open area to the 'trunk'. I have a little smuggling compartment in my outback that I use to get around this. Ben

No, I totally deserve a hard time! Damn you Chef William!!!

I recall reading that it was either a new policy or a new place. How is that for helpful? Tighe, I can't wait for your review! I have been meaning to get a dinner there for some time, but money has been a little tight lately. The cooking class has been at the front of my mind recently. I am planning on giving him a ring pretty soon. I prety much have dropped the ball on this one. Ben

You must be sneaking some of that take home wine from Mistral!

Hey, now you are on the hook for a Mistral write up! I do know that corkage at Mistral is $25 a bottle. I have also heard about a place on Queen Anne where corkage is $10 and their markup on every single bottle of wine is only $10. An interesting concept. Ben

Would fresh lime juice work the same way in this drink? Ben

I made these this weekend for a b-day party. They turned out fabulous! I was so very impressed with myself...even if the recipe is pretty simple. I left some sitting on the counter for Katie and shortly thereafter recieved a phone call from her that could have been misconstrued as lewd or suggestive. They are such a great chocolate fix. They contain a lot of chocolate, but it is lightened with the highly beaten eggs. This recipe truly is a winner and will make it into full time rotation. thanks! Ben

I got a medium sized one for christmas this year, but have not used it yet. Now that I am remided of it, I will have to break it out. Ben

Cool, thanks for the recipe. I will try this out sometime. Ben

Suvir, are you saying that the meals are not prepared at home. For some reason I was under the impression that they were. Ben

Did ya ever get your ribs? How were they?

How does the billing work? Are the workers independent, or are they part of a larger company?

Just from my memory of that corner, I think this might be another gas station\a&w combo. I dont know if these suck or anything, but it makes me worry. Frankly, I am losing sleep. Ben

Mapquest of location Looks like it is right next to Safeco

From the A&W site

A&W is around in some guise up here. On the Mukilteo speedway, they have an outpost as part of a Gas station. I have yet to try it out, but will now make a point of it to let you know if it is worthwhile. Ben
