^ Really?

You're lightyears ahead of me, and I thought I was good!

Your presentation is definitely key.

Thanks man, Im sure im not light years ahead of you, its different cause I have been cooking professionally for many years.


It's the difference between a great homemade soup and a five-star resteraunt opening course.

I agree, you definatley know what your doing :yesway:

I try to stay away from a 4 course though, cause then the girl will want to take a nap.

I'll have to try that tomatoes in the oven bit - how long do you usually bake them, and at what temperature? Whole, halved...?

I have to admit the idea is not mine......thank Alton Brown. :lol:

Oh....and the bit about the shellfish...classic! :rofl:

....I held her hair and rubbed her back...
:rofl:

@ Saffron Shrimp: Holy Shit dude...you need your own show. :yesway: Tasty looking stuff. :yum:

thanks man, its a loin of veal and inside is cured but not smoked bacon, watercress, maine lobster tail and black truffles. The veg is morel mushrooms and french beans. The sauce is a mixture of shallots, herbs, red wine, veal stock which is reduced then strained and finsihed with chopped black truffles and butter.

I'm always up for new recipes, and Boston's North End is a veritable treasure trove for italian produce. :yesway:

I make fettucine alfredo with chicken broiled in a garlic butter sauce, homemade bread, and tiramisu for a desert.

Looks impressive as hell when making it, too.

I don't think its what you cook, it's HOW you cook it :). With confidence, flair, prestige, speed, control, and style :D... Well, its gotta taste good, that's for sure.

Lately, i've been enjoying cooking burgers. It works out well after a cookout, I can bring them to work and heat 'em up and eat 'em. :yum:

One of my favorites is one of many Japanese dishes. Making sushi and sashimi is very impressive if you know the cuts and can give it great presentation. Also there are many things like broiled fishes, noodle dishes like udon or even golden curry. It all depends on who you are making food for though. If I dont make Japanese food I will most likely make a french meal. French food isnt that hard to make its just alot of different components you have to make usually. I will type up some french and japanese dish recipes and post them here.
