re: Paul Prudhomme - Beef Gumbo

I watched it the other night and he certainly needs to keep his beef in longer.

The amount of okra is also very very excessive.

I don't mind touchscreens... when I want to scroll or click on something fast, I can just press it on screen. With that being said, I can do without one as well.
You cannot hate the media enough.
Listing it on LS is a waste of time.
Teach your kids to have common sense and know right from wrong.

I grew up with the internet at my disposal. I have seen literally the darkest and deepest parts of the internet. I actually went to the Silk Road through the tor browser when I was 12 years old.

I was curious but not stupid. I learned that from my father.

I went Friday night.

Steaks came out blue rare when we requested medium. After they brought them back out, they were cooked right and had excellent flavor and tenderness.

The Au Poirie sauce was great but not worth $14.

The creamed spinach was awful. The spinach was barely cooked, very very peppery, and watery.

The banana cream pie is likely the best dessert I have ever had.

Service was great but could have been better for the price we paid. Our waiter had 3 tables and I felt he gave more attention to them. Tipping 20% on a $300 meal, the waiter should only have 1-2 tables.
I got an extra 10 years with my dad because of his heart transplant. God speed.

I agree. I was expecting high prices due to his name but not as high as what is on the menu.

Going this Friday. I think they have a soft opening tonight.

The Domestic "Mashima" Wagyu Ribeye is mispelled, its suppose to be "Mishima"
$18 Chocolate Martini that uses Parrot Bay

Let's see how this goes



How large of a purchase?

Sapphire lineup over at Chase are good travel cards. The Reserve has an extra bonus after you spend $75,000 in a calendar year, you unlock some special perks like getting a $500 Southwest credit + A List, World of Hyatt Explorist Status, IHG Diamond Elite, $250 credit for their online shops. But its for a calendar year so this late in the year, may not reach it unless that large purchase is truly a large purchase lol

The Crispy fish bao was awesome.

The Mandu is a great app
IBM's channel has kept me up to date with their videos.
All clad, Made in, or Hestan (if you really want to spend the $3k lol).

If money is not an issue, I would go with the high end G5 graphite core All Clads for about $2,000.

5 days in Rome and then a 10 day river cruise up the Rhine River for the Christmas Markets.

My wife and I kept saying "wow"
Looks pretty cool but with every new gadget, it will take time to adjust. May look into getting it in a year or 2 after devs catch up and glitches get worked out.

re: Online checking account recs?

Ive dealt with these things directly through the app by disputing them and they always get resolved. Never spoke to anyone.
I have been pleased with SoFi.

Why are you needing to call them so much? Ive had my SoFi checking account now for 3 years and I have not had to pick up the phone once to call them.
Superior Fajitas are elite with the garlic butter.

While the fajitas at Tio Javis are just good, they serve it with a Pechuga butter sauce (kinda like a wine infused butter) that is unreal.
