    Lagerstrom's tomato soup with olive oil drizzle, scallions, and pepper to top. Lahey's no knead bread with provolone, Havarti, and Colby jack. Used a 2:1 butter to mayo spread for the bread.

    He’s not involved with Husk anymore, from what I understand, and I would recommend Continental over Audrey. Audrey is great, but Continental is better. Especially for a bachelor party, imo.

    Anyone have a go-to rub or sauce for racks of pork?
    Anyone try smoking these with any success?

    Got one of the dinner parties again tonight and doing 2-3 of them as the main. Planned on just doing SP&Garlic + a couple of herbs rubbed on and grilling but open to making some fancy adjustments if anyone has success/favorites.

    Ended up smoking the racks of pork with some apple and pecan wood
    Made an apricot jam/glaze that was a pretty amazing compliment to the pork flavor
    Did the balsamic grilled grapes bc IronChef and they did not disappoint

    I'm glad grilled grapes caught on :smug:

    I grilled some pears recently with a savory mustard seasoning that was good as well as some grilled mangos with a chili lime seasoning. Grilling fruit is where it's at.

    grilling peaches in the summer is the best. put them in savory flank steak salads and over vanilla ice cream for dessert.

    once upon a time I remember Eathan Edwards wanted to start a bougie eating thread, but I did the chefs tasting and pairing at Le Bernadin

    easily one of the best tasting menus I've ever done and worth if you're into that kind of thing

    Fair enough. If I eat by myself at Spoon and Stable again I’m putting it there.

    $150 dinner alone has to qualify.

    i've only tried a few things on the menu because my wife has made the lobster eggs a must order every time we go so that's half the order at least

    never had the squid ink there, usually get the raviolo and carbonara

    If you can spend > $100 for one person without trying I think it’s bougie.

    I could post multiple S&S Synergy Series which is a multiple of what a normal night is at S&S but at some point it seemed a bit much. That place is great though. My son goes to school with GK’s kids and to raise money for the school he auctioned off a dinner for 8 hosted at the winner’s house and it went for $25k.

    Here is one pic though:
    3683211C-7D2A-4511-848E-FEA850BE07B6.jpeg

    And I would definitely call BLG cunty (as well as sister restaurant 112). The orange gnocchi is ridiculous. I was also amazed at the roast chicken. I would never order something like that but it was a work dinner done family style and I’m glad I took some.

    Any taste difference between smaller and larger lobster tails?

    Any difference in quality between what I can get at Whole Foods versus using one of the frozen, mail order Maine lobster services?

    Yes the steak is good but the pan sauce was the star. Shallot and thyme pan sauce with homemade chicken stock, Dijon, a couple dashes worstershire and mounted in butter.
