yeah it looks pretty good. i wanted to make sure that we had something represented from the 4 camps of vegetarian, beef, chicken and fish, so i chose the one in each category that looked the best to me and would hopefully appeal to the largest number of people.
also i wanted to give options to people who wanted to order something kind of fancy and interesting and to people who are a little less adventurous in their food choices.
it was really hard trying to pare down that menu, guys. i did the best that i could.

also, i chose a hamburger-related appetizer for tarranon because of the cruel burger-related betrayal he faced in the second course selection
(the sliders look more closely related to little meatball subs, but that was the best i could do buddy)

oh I didn't realize it was your choices, I'd say you did a great job since everything I remembered reading is on there and I'm having trouble making up my mind.

Oh wow, yeah, fantastic job narrowing it down, Will. People's first choices may not be on there, but at the very least I'd be surprised if there's anybody who can't find something they like from every category.
I think a lot of people are going to end up getting the Wellington, it looks fucking delicious.
Edit: Ladyfingers are....sort of like pocky, right?
And for someone who never had Wellington... Wellington it is!
Yup, same here, haven't actually had foie gras or duxelles that I can think of, but I imagine it's gonna be pretty tastey. Also considering the chicken though, but I'm not a big risotto fan.
Good job, Will. Even my picky husband will be pleased. I told him that if he didn't like something he could suck it up and go to McDonald's later. I want grown-up food, fuckin'-A!

Double-check the risotto for any traces of a soul.
i kind of grilled the lady about accomodating a vegan.
she said that the risotto isn't made with chicken stock but is made with butter and they can't do anything about that, unfortunately. they didn't have any proper vegan entrees, but that they can offer you a great big salad and bread wouldn't charge you for the whole prix fixe price.
so sadly that is the best i can do for a full-on vegan, robos.
sorry man

Thanks for putting this together Will, but I need to know if the ziti are free-range.
they were culled from the small ziti tribes of west africa and close-packed onto ships. they basically dropped off most of the zitis in barbados in exchange for sugar cane before continuing the voyage up to boston harbor, where sugar cane and the remaining zitis were exchanged for rum.
so basically the zitis qualify as "free range" for most of their lives.

Don't worry about it. The only reason I don't usually eat dairy is because regular consumption seems to fuck up my skin, so making an exception here or there isn't a big deal.
And I eat hard boiled eggs for protein nowadays, so I'm not actually vegan anymore.

Hey, Will. So my bank account got frozen and I don't know if I can make the trip anymore. Is it too late to take myself and my friend off the list?
i gave her the final number this morning. if you're sure you can't make it, i'll email her tomorrow and see if i can free up the seats

Is asking for no mushrooms an option? Cause of all the things on this world to eat mushrooms are the one I hate most. And three of those options include them
If not I guess its fish for me.

they can make the chicken dish without mushrooms. the risotto and wellington have the mushrooms pretty much cooked in.

probably the soup
and probably the crumble
sounds like a great meal.
the original Thomas Crowne Affair (the one with Steve McQueen) had a scene filmed in the Marliave.
so cool
I will probably decide when I get there. Same for the appetizer; it'll depend on how I feel on that day.
I see we have similar tastes

if i hadn't chosen the sliders i probably would have done the escargot instead
and i don't really know how many people would have ordered it besides me
so probably the sliders were a better choice anyways.

Good on you Will for all of this work thus far. Wowzers.
