I would definetly recomend the bar at MoMa, You can eat at the bar, and they also have a number of tables they do not take reservations for and hold open for walk-ins.

Not sure of cost, will report back after wed. Maybe Sam has info.

Anybody use one of those cool inverted in water butter crocks I love mine. Edit: no need to refrigerate it keeps butter at room temp with no problems.

I have A.B. Les Halles Cookbook cover, under dust jacket on my back left shoulder. It is the only food related one unless people eat the Tocororo bird.

Kim just called L.Inn you did have have Pea shoots, and the Lawrenceville PD, they will be on the look out for you now. (just a joke). I only called the management because I go to Le.J, and just could not see this happening there, and the PD call was more to fact check on management, I had not seen J/K post yet, 10 min apart.

It smelled and tasted like....dookie. It makes durian smell heavenly in comparison. ← ROFLMFAO so I take it that you are not suggesting this dish

Thanks adam, I will check them out when I return from the Cape. I love trying new things but am horrible remembring ingredients and prep always lose my notes, what exactly is chou dofu. edit: gotta love google, chou dofu = stinky tofu. You say it was strange, in a good or bad way? From what I gather people either love this or hate, the same way people love or hate natto, durien, fermented fish paste, etc...

Where exactly is hunan noodle, never said no to duck blood.

They said the have had multiple calls on the incident and that the staff went overboard in "taking care" of the guy, they did not mention any details considering I was not there and not a credible witness, just a concerned customer. :raz: how is your head feeling tommy edit: I can not spell

Le Jardin in edgewater has seared foi with five spice apple, yummy...fatty liver,

Just talked to Edgewater PD they confirm the incident. This definetly should not have happened FoH. I will though be there wed, This thread made me remember how good there foi is yum...fatty liver Tommy I think egdewater PD might be looking for you

now that i think about it i *was* there the other night. ← Laughin my f'ing ass off, tommy. Wait maybe that was me over there

I had same experience at hunan, "no you wont like that its not for you". China 46 has always been nothing than a very pleasent experience, they a very helpful guiding people through the menu and specials board. Man, i am on cape cod now(no good chinese) and this talk is making yearn for china 46 how i miss seaweed salad, and ruby pork, and anything with brown sauce.

Just spoke to the manager over there, he seemed very forthecoming and said that they just escorted the guy out because he was making a scene drunk etc.. He said there was no boot kicking to the head. From my experience there this makes sense. I will be eating there wed. edit: strange you witnessed this but could not describe anyone

Thanks for the site T. Menu looks pretty much the same since I last ate there maybe 6 months ago. I am going to start a new thread in general food topis on the bigger ? of this issue, open it up for wider discussion.

Tommy none that I can find(site). I am starting to agree though, why not eat there good food great cocktails from what I remember. They might be able to drum up more business if the had the"floor show" everynight, and they could add it to the sopranos bus tour Bourdain went on in NR Jersey ep. Might pre-eat there before hitting Pegu club wed.

It is amazing what people will do to get that, "proverbial free lunch".

"Also had a lady very seriously tell me she was allergic to soup...all of them" This is total b.s. I still do not understand why people lie about such things, either say "I do not LIKE soup" or do not order the soup. People like this are either snobs or just oversized babys crying out for attention.

This will be one of my first stops when I return home to NJ(tues). Thanks for the heads up Sam Heading over wed. evening check NY ISO. Will have a full report. Sam any idea what in there sig. cocktail.

I have eaten there many times in the past. The regulers at the bar get a little rowdy sometimes but this I hhave never heard of. Sorry to hear that the staff beat up a customer, I do not think I will return there to eat, unless they resolve this isssue. I have seen people get 86'd but this is a bit extreme, I have heard of this happening in the back parking lots of nightclubs and bars, but in the FoH of an upscale res't this is just wrong. Welcome to EG.

Thats just plain scary, 'kraut cake

My mother still has the "kitchen witch" hanging in her kitchen.

I just toss it all into the small side of the sink, and grind it away.

Ruhlman has a book coming out in nov. Keller has some input, check food m&n.

I normally just eat alot before, the aunt who ALWAYS leaves the giblet bag in the turkey, prepares food. Most of the desserts ala sandra lee are a non booze hangover waiting to happen But it is worth it for me to see tnhe extended family. I only live two blocks away so I always sneak home and fill my pockets with freshly (purchased) sliced LARDO
