    Just saw a promo that CBS Evening News will be airing a story re. this on Monday, 4/24. (DC channel 9 at 6:30 pm).

    Cathal Armstrong's recipe in today's Post (Restaurant Eve's Cake) and my wife's directive to get steppin' on it brought to mind my disappointing stab at recreating Patrick O'Connell's superb Sweet Red Bell Pepper Soup with Sambuca Cream (even with the benefit of the recipe, which was in his first cookbook). Other than the impressive Palena Chicken Project, can Rockwellians (or as newly-annointed, SFDRUNKASSES) share the ups (please) and downs (helpful as well) of such home recreations of favorite restaurant food?

    Uh, Michael L., any good movies coming soon to a neighborhood theatre such as this one that you might recommend after say, oh, I don't know, a classic steak dinner?

    I agree -- 21st century version of Yalies trying to get fake letters published by Ann Landers. Crofton from today's chat: "His steak came out topped with a butter and parsley mixture. The menu had stated that the steak would have butter, but said nothing about the parsley. My friend doesn't like to eat meat with anything green on it, and just doesn't like parsley. He didn't want a steak covered in it, and because it was mixed with melted butter, he couldn't easily scrape it off. So, he sent it back, asking for a new steak without the parsley." (emphasis added) And Rocks, I assume, will zap everything else in a post attempting to work in a lame reference to "Soylent ... poof!

    Quite a few of us who were at Ray's empathize with your plight and would like to help but are not familiar with these "leftovers" of which you speak. No one at our table left anything unconsumed. Right, Ol'Ironstomach? Next time, I'll just have to try and order some....

    Ah If there’s a cure for this I don’t want it Don’t want it If there’s a remedy I’ll run from it From it Think about Ray's all the time Never let it out of my mind ’cause I love Mike I’ve got the sweet food hangover I don’t wanna get over Sweet food hangover (apologies to Diana Ross, P. Sawyer, M. Mcleod)

    So the 8:00 seating may just be SOL.

    Sanibel Since Sanibel was mentioned, let me add a vote for the Sanibel Steakhouse. Superb service and quality steaks, not to mention the best martini I've ever had.

    Let us know what the ribs are like as well.

    Thanks for the suggestion. Don't be embarrassed; the baby backs I've liked most to date have been from the school fundraiser company, Market Day. As for the spare ribs vs. baby backs debate, don't want to start nuthin'.....

    Where do you find worthy baby back ribs? Eastern market?

    When will the educated musings begin as to the menu?

    I'll try, but my bet is my wife will intercept every last one. Maybe I'll organize a dodgeball-like barrage that will overwhelm her.

    Consider that it has been proven that you are officially the nicest guy on DR.

    Enlightenment, please, re. tipping sommelier. Recently, great job done by Ramon at Marcel's who paired wine by the glass with our party of 4's three courses. In hindsight, I fear faux pas in adding additional tip to payment of bill (hoping he would receive a split) instead of directly tipping him.

    What are your opinions of wine dinners? Marcel's has one upcoming on 3/30 featuring Cardinale wines.
