Nice ploy. <BR/><BR/>Foie gras! I rarely get foie gras at a restaurant, but I would dedicate a whole day and make Thomas Keller's torchons of foie gras and eat that, and then roast an entire lobe of foie gras like he shows in the French Laundry Cookbook! A relatively inexpensive place to get whole lobes of foie gras is Nicole's Gourmet Foods in South Pasadena.mattatouillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362025149586532212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8806746107661934299.post-34216231986522377322008-10-14T22:47:00.000-07:002008-10-14T22:47:00.000-07:00I like both, but find foie gras more celebratory-w...I like both, but find foie gras more celebratory-worthy :)<BR/><BR/>Even though they specialize more in seafood, I'd definitely give <A HREF="http://providencela.com/contents/providencedinnermenu.pdf" REL="nofollow">Providence's foie gras preparations</A> (they have three on their regular menu) a try!
