Nice way to go out, Nick. I'll have some of each.

How was the Kobe ribeye?

So what will you do with your time off?

Hi Jin,

Kobe was very good. Extraordinarily and richly marbled. No purge in the bag. We made it very cold, but not frozen and sliced it thin with a bit of laudemio olive and white truffle oil. Very good.

Interestingly, I ran into the Washington producers who had a booth at the NY Resto show. We're setting up an aging program with one of my local distributers. I'll keep you posted.

As far as what I'll do with my time off...I'll try to get a life.

Edit: The Kobe was from washington state, not Oregaon. I need more geography lessons re the Snake River.

Hey, we're having a get-together here in SF in a week and a half. The weather's kind of sucky right now though. :smile:

and don't think I didn't consider going :smile: . The COPIA Food as Strength Symposium is occuring that weekend also. The Masters of Food and Wine is also going to take place during my time off.

But I have a rather important dinner function on the Staurday and a wdding to attend on the Sunday. I wish i could clone me and attend everything. :sad:

Bummer. But I hope the food's good there at least.

I had to go to a wedding in December in Alabama. Never knew plaid workshirts and jeans were formal attire (No, it wasn't the wedding party :raz: ). They did have a NASCAR cake though (and a regular wedding cake too). The girlfriend caught the bouquet too, or rather it bounced off of two people and landed straight in her hands. :blink::shock::wacko::laugh::blink:

Did you make it to Copia when you were out here?

No, not that trip. Only 4 days, so I structured it around Sf restaurants.

I'm currently checking the net for destinations. what ever I do, it looks like I'll be traveling alone.

Nick,

There are bargain fares on Expedia. I found one for $565 round trip from Kennedy to Paris. Well???

740 RT Bangkok. I'm seriously considering it. Now that the stage at El Bulli doesn't seem to be happening.

The foie gras, lamb and duck confit don't sell much.  Consequently I have a freezer full of leftover Foie scraps.  Every once in a while we have a dumpling party. We sear chop and roll the foie gras into wonton wrappers.  This we serve deep fried at high end banquets with a fig sauce.

SEND THE FOIE GRAS SCRAPS TO ME! I'll take them! :rolleyes:

Adrian, sounds nice. Looks like you've got a lovely bunch of tomatoes.

What greens with Salad of Black Pudding, Smoked Bacon, and a Poached Egg? They'd have to be a bit hardy, I think.
