Just did a $40 Restaurant Week thing at George’s California Modern. Really great meal. Had ceviche with halibut, shrimp, scallops, and amarillo peppers; tea roasted duck breast with figs, gold beets, and daikon and a small serving of seared foie gras; and shared several desserts including a cheesecake soufflé, cream cheese ice cream, chocolate tart, passion fruit savarin with coconut ice milk and mango chutney, and a few other things. And paired with a pinot and Sage Cabernet (my friend’s idea, not mine….
Glad I finally got to try foie gras before it becomes illegal in California. I perfectly cooked some beef liver earlier this week though so if I’m honest it wasn’t as mind-blowing as I’d hoped, but still yummy.
I'm glad I don't live in California. It would ruin my Xmas not having foie gras. I know it's cruel to produce but so is beer. Think of all the hops that get boiled to make a single pint.
Yeah hippie state. And it wasn't a pâté - I even specifically asked the waitress before ordering because I wanted an actual cut of the lobe, not a pâté.
They will be fining hotels & motels if they are not using properly "fitted" sheets!!! The frigging elastic police!!! Something is very wrong on the left coast.

Ooh, that's fancy. I'm just not a liver person. But Foie Gras should be legal because geese deserve to have stuff rammed down their throats. I hate those birds.
Those little bastards did put up a fight... I have some cuts and bruises on my hands.
But mind you, that was before I grabbed the rolling pin. And not only it was the only thing I had resembling a seafood hammer, but it also worked like a charm...
