appetizers, after we began destroying them

left: marrow. JESUS H CHRIST this was good.

 

right: lamb short ribs.

 

back: crab cake with a smokey mayonnaise. trust me, it sounds odd but really goes well together.

 

our favorite thing: marrow.

 

My grandmother, who was from Provence, had a saying. when something was so good it was enough to spank your mama, she would say, "C'est comme la petite culotte du petit Jesus" (like baby Jesus' underwear). it's a compliment. so tonight, we went to Home, Richard Blais' new place, and after two glasses of champagne and a glass of wine, i tell Chef Blais that his marrow is as good as baby Jesus' underwear. because it's honestly the best thing i've ever eaten.

 

i sincerely hope he took it well.
