  1. We invested in new flatware a couple months ago.  I was so impressed by the flatware at Fig & Olive in Newport Beach, CA that I took a picture of them.  They use the Sambonet Dream pattern.  It’s simple, functional, elegant, and durable 1810 SS.  When it was time to replace our aging flatware I researched them out and found the QPR reasonable.  This pattern is used in Michelin Star restaurants and high end hotels worldwide.  The best price I found was through https://www.rwsmithco.com/?collection=Dream&pattern=Dream.  If you’re looking for something even better, I’d recommend the pattern L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon uses: https://www.sambonet-shop.com/h-art-18-10-stainless-steel-40-pcs-place-setting/.  I hope this helps!

  2. I’ve been following this thread for a while and I appreciate everyone’s posts. This has been a great resource.  I’ve always wanted to attempt Pan de Cristal, but it seemed out of reach.  I was surprised that it was included in MB, and even though it still seemed beyond my abilities, I thought I’d give it a shot … actually 3 shots.  The first 2 attempts didn’t quite make it … becoming familiar with the high hydration and then sticking to the couche were the major obstacles.  The third attempt thankfully worked, but there’s room for improvement …
