The sugar snap peas are really looking good and I bought a sack of them. If you get there early the lobster bisque actually has lobster and $4.99 for 16oz is a deal even thought its hot and I had for lunch. A few new interesting red wine blends are in. If you take a bite out of the vegetarian buns be sure to remove the piece of wax paper from the bottom. It doesn't taste to good. Maybe needs salt. My wife ate a raspberry bar and they are frikkin good. I think as many people sit around in their cars and eat as sit down inside.

Love it or hate it, it's still a great store.

The lobster bisque wasn't what I was expecting the one time i got it. Doubt I'll get it again.

I feel like it had potatoes in it. Meh.

It does have potatoes in it as do most cream, chowder type bisques. My point was get in there early and pick more lobster than potatoes. You get there after lunch it's potato soup.

And it's five bucks.

I've honestly never had lobster bisque with potato chunks in it. At least if they made it that way, they put none in my bowl. That's why I found it odd is all.

Next time ask for a sampling of their smoked hamburger. They'll decline you one because they don't sell a smoked hamburger. But by some sort of reverse osmosis sort of thing you will get the satisfaction of having the best hamburger that is unavailable for ingesting in all of Louisiana.

Whole foods is a wonderful, magical place...




Until you get to the checkout line and see your bill.

Wut? What part of my description of the delicious albeit unattainable world famous Whole Foods smoked hamburger exuded anger?

1) Whole Foods - A head scratcher to some, if any of you have ever tried the smoke burger samples at the butcher counter, you know what I'm saying. Sadly, they do not sell these burgers cooked because it may well be the only burger that is better than mine.

I've never had a lobster bisque with potatoes in it. I'm not a chowder fan. I like potato soup, but it must be pureed and not chunky.

I love me some whole foods. They even have really small paper cups by the soup so you can sample before you buy. But that place will run amok on your bill.

I thought maybe it was some weird vegan bisque. Guess I need to get there early.

Fisherman Cioppino FTW
