Lee...you left us hanging man. Did everyone actually eat it and like it? Did you explain what it was before anyone tried it?

I had it a few years ago and really liked it, but the people I went out to eat with refused to tell me what it was before I ate it. The price on that dish almost makes me want to start my own goose/duck farm to supply these guys....

Sorry guys, it wasn't my intention to leave you hanging.

I explained to the table what it was before ordering. Most made faces, but I give them all credit for at least trying it.

Here are the stats:

- Asher.................... (YES)
- Hocking................. (NO)
- Fran Houchin......... (NO)
- Katie Egleston.......(could go either way, but not going to order it on own)
- Wayne Houchin..... (YES)
- J. Bayme................ (HELL NO)

If you have an opportunity to taste Foie Gras, try it -- you might like it.

Man I love that stuff. I am so angry that it is now banned in Chicago because of stupid animal rights activists. When I would have a good show or saved up enough money for a "treat" I would goto the Ralf Loren restaurant off of Chicago Ave. and get a fillet with Foie Gras on it. Now I am just left with the fillet.

Weak sauce Chicago, weak sauce.

I'm pretty sure that as soon as Lee mentioned that he wanted to order something called Foie Gras, I covertly whipped out the iPhone and Googled what this mysterious entree was.

The first Google result said that Foie Gras means "Fat Liver" in French. That was all I needed to know. 10 minutes and 10 pounds per square inch of peer pressure later, Wayne and Lee were still trying to get me to try this mysterious food they spoke of. But I held strong. Wayne, your culinary peer pressure powers won't work on me. Try me.

But its good. Seriously. Step up to the big kids table and try something different besides chicken fingers and fettuccine alfredo. :cool:

Lee,

You've got me curious now. What exactly was J. Bayme's reaction do the Foie Gras? I need more information other than "HELL NO". Haha, he didn't wig-out and spit it out in a projectile fashion?

I don't think Mr. Bayme ate the foie gras:

Though I could not see why he didn't -- it's only "the liver of a duck or a goose that has been specially fattened by gavage." A gavage... it's like chicken.

Cheers,
JTM

I dont know how you guys ate that :confused: I cant even think about eating that:eek: Well it is a good thing you got the appitiser instead of the masive piece.

I would have liked to see the faces of the waiters when you told them which one you ordered.
