| | Indeed it is. I think they've got about 12-15 locations nationwide. Effectively the same menu everywhere. | | | |

| Last night dinner prepared by DJ Hombre:
Red beets and mixed greens with ricotta (?) and a spice dressing. Duck with Riso
I gotta say this was the best duck I have ever had and I've had a lot of duck. If there was a little sauce on it it had to be 98% butter. Then sprinkled with rock salt... It was fantastic. John has imo the makings of a great chef. If a restaurant served a duck like this people would be coming from around the world to have it. His love of wine keeps him in his current job as a cellar rat for Etude. That plus the fact that chefs are a dime a dozen especially in the Napa Valley. When and if some restaurantuer gives John a chance I have no doubt that he could become one of the best chefs in the world. | | | |
