Which restaurants do foie gras right, or even "have foie gras"? I do not see it on menus often. My birthday is coming up and I want my foie gras starter! :-) Thank you.

BOUNDARY ROAD ANNOUNCES WINTER FOIE FESTIVAL DATES Over a dozen DC restaurants will celebrate foie gras January 13th-20th, 2016 WASHINGTON, DC "“ A dozen restaurants located on Capitol Hill and H Street NE are participating in the Winter Foie Festival January 13th-20th, 2016. The event aims to educate diners about foie gras and celebrate the culinary delicacy. The Foie Festival is the reincarnation of Foie La La, the annual foie gras event established three years ago by Brad Walker, co-owner of Boundary Road. This is the first year that restaurants located outside the H Street corridor will participate in the event. Also new this year: support from D'Artagnan, the company that supplies premium Hudson Valley foie gras products to restaurants across the United States. The premise of the week-long event is a friendly competition between neighborhood restaurants for the Golden Duck trophy. Chefs and restaurant owners also plan to use the event as a way to educate diners about foie gras by addressing misinformation about the ingredient and by recognizing and celebrating the farmers who engage in responsible practices. Participating restaurants will create and offer a foie-centric dish as a menu special for the duration of the competition. The winner is decided by popular vote. Diners try the dishes and select a favorite via an online poll. The list of participating restaurants and their dishes will be released on Tuesday, January 12, 2016. For more information please contact Boundary Road chef Luke Feltz at chef@boundaryrd.com.

California is banning the production and sale of foie gras in one more month. Since California is such a large consumptive state, I wonder if this will have an effect on foie gras prices in other states.

I cannot in good conscience defend the selfish practice of Le Gavage, but I can say with great confidence that on a global scale, the total amount of inhumanity involved in eating foie gras is dwarfed in comparison with the inhumane treatment of industrial livestock, chickens crammed into cages, etc. That said, so does eating shark fin soup and wearing a mink coat, and I wonder aloud if foie gras lovers (and I am one of them - sautéed foie gras may be my single favorite food) use this as an indefensible justification of what amounts to animal torture. Is this really any different than saying a single hate crime isn't that bad compared to genocide? Are people going to look back at this post in 250 years and compare it to Thomas Jefferson being concerned about treating his slaves humanely?
