Haven't been to this restaurant in a long time but remember loving the cassoulet. Must have been there in the winter. Be sure to give us a report.

It's been a long time since I was at this restaurant. So long that it was BYO when I was there. Did you look at the wine list?

What time?

Thanks for the report. Chef/owner Lance Knowling is a very talented chef. Any problem parking?

LOL--in any case the coffee was VERY good when I dined at The French Laundry. Give us the address of your ice cream place. Hours too!

Radio show will not be there this year. But Pat Tanner who usually does the radio show will be at the event so stop me and ask who she is so you can say hello to her. Kim--are you going?

Rosie and Lowell Saferstein WILL attend. Looking forward to this gathering.

Thanks for the report. Never been to Nori and it is so close to me. Try Kyoto, Florham Park for sushi and let us know what you think. We have had some eGullet get togethers there for lunch.

bouquetduvin--Thanks for the information. Keep us informed about where you like to dine and drink.

Bouquetduvin--Welcome to eGullet. I assume that Blend is not one of your clients???? Which NJ restaurants do you think have an exceptional wine list?

Have heard good things about Maureen.

BEA--Name, adddress, phone #???? PLEASE!

Having come home from driving 2700 miles thru Utah, Wyoming, mostly Montana and Idaho I can tell you that in my limited 3 week experience these states are culinary wastelands. However, this was not a "food" vacation but a visual one and these states are magnificient. The scenery, wildlife, wildflowers, snow capped mountains and hiking made the the trip memorable. Love being able to drive 100 miles with a 75 MPH speed limit and not see anything but the plains and mountains. Enjoyed dinner at Log Haven in Utah although the chef puts too made flavors on one plate. Had fabulous dinners at Corner House Grille, Whitefish Montana, Scotty's Table in Missoula, Montana and a very good lunch at Sweetwater Restaurant, Jackson, Wyoming. Otherwise forget about it!! Dinners at the National Parks (Tetons, Yellowstone and Glacier) tasted like frozen entrees that had been reheated. At the Tetons Lowell ordered a buffalo burger medium rare and was told that the National Park Service will only serve the burger well done. Actually we found even when we ordered our meat/fish medium rare it always came out well done. The food at Hong Kong Tea House in Salt Lake City was barely edible. But like I said this was not meant to be a culinary vacation. Thank you all for your suggestions.

Harvest Bistro is now on my "Must Try" ASAP list. Loved the menu--skate--rabbit legs. Just wish it was BYO. Thanks for the info.

WELCOME to eGullet craft man. Be sure to give us reports on where you have dined.

Don't forget that we will be having an eGullet pig roast on Sept. 12. Info here: http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showto...=0entry596631

Ming and Moghul are on the bottom level of the Shop Rite shopping center on Oak Tree Rd. Both very good and BYO. Ming is Pan Asian. Moghul is Indian

I think there is an Amish Market on Rt 202 near Flemington.
