OK. So there are a few of us. Maybe we should try to set something up sometime.
-
Sorry. It's Le Flore not Le Flur.

Anyone on the board down in PWC besides me?

Went last night. Pumpkin Ravioli was good, although a little sweet, I thought. Plus I thought the portion could have been a bit bigger for the price. The mushroom/veal risotto my wife got was quite good. -
you are joking, right?

Great. If you take a day trip (or weekend) to Agadir, you'll want to try Le Flur (I think that's spelled right). It's on the street that skirts the beach/boardwalk area. It's owned by some French Expats and has really good food.

I agree with porcupine, the Hanger.

One great place is a place in the Jemma El Fna (kind of like the square in the center of town) called Argana. The food there is very authentic. My wife is Moroccan and she was quite impressed with food when we were there last year, even though it is in the the main tourist area, she said it was very close to "home cooking". All the tagines there are great. Morocco is one of the "in" countries right now, so there is a lot of investments coming in from Europe driving up the prices of many things. Additionally, for things other than food, there is a tourist price and a "locals" price. I would encourage you to bargain (don't worry it's expected). Moroccans are very friendly people, you'll have a great time there.

Amen. I hate that word.

The pizza is OK, not the best I've ever had, but pretty decent. The restaurant is a welcome addition to the concrete wasteland that is Rosslyn.

Strange Things You Eat or Want to Try
wineitup replied to hillvalley's topic in Shopping and Cooking
When I was a kid I had 2 strange things I remember eating. One was carrot sticks dipped in butterscotch. The other was chocolate chips cookies dipped in Heinz 57. -
Hey there, Anyone got the skinny on things going on for News Years Eve at some of the various restaurants around town? Thanks.

Dining in New York City

Hell's Kitchen ?!?! -
Had Lunch there on Sunday. Sandwiches were good. Tres Leches cake was great. I'll be going back to try their dinner menu.
-
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll add them to my list of places to try.

Going to Edinburgh and Dublin for vacation in August. Any places that I shouldn't miss? looking more for hole in the wall type places with good food as opposed to 5 star dining experiences.
-
When I was there last year, we stayed at the MGM. I thought the rooms were fine. Went to Bouchon and had an excellent meal. I think you'll like it. For Breakfast, I would suggest the Buffet at Paris.

L'Etape - 89 rue de convention small place with great food. a neighborhood kind of place
-
I second the view at Nepenthe. The food is OK, the view is awesome.

Oh yeah. I forgot about Girl and the Fig. Had a couple great meals there. I second (or is that 3rd) that suggestion. -
Dining near Deer Park and Meadowood Napa Valley
wineitup replied to JLK's topic in San Francisco Restaurants and Dining
I'll second the Market suggestion in St. Helena. FWIW, I always found the wineries in Sonoma, much "friendlier" than most of the ones in Napa and usually less crowded as well. -
Thanks for all the suggestions. Only had time to explore the pizza option, which I really liked. That super thin crust is awesome.
-
I'm in St. Louis right now for meetings. Any can't miss places? I'm right near the new baseball stadium.
-
I'll second Cafe Pasqual's in Santa Fe. You may also want to try La Casa Sena (nice patio for outdoor dining)
