Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Went to Travail tonight and they served us a 28-plate, seven-course tasting menu.

If this was a ten, I haven’t had a meal above a six in my life. It was breathtaking.

So worth it if you can get a seat while you're in town for the FF? Looks like that is available on Wednesday before the games....

I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic, but I’m generally not a super-adventurous eater. This was kind of a big step for me to branch out. To have this many things I would never consider ordering at a restaurant is crazy. It’s also kind of amazing to have this kind of range at a single meal.

Yes, definitely. You will need to buy tickets ahead of time from their website. travailkitchen.com

They have 2 seatings per night, you'll want the 20+ course tasting menu (we didn't do the drink pairing option, we like to order our own).

The only 2 things I haven't had are on the bottom. Googling I may have had the Guanciale

Some of them we had alot when I was a kid
 
Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

I've had everything on dx's list except the jowl bacon. Escargot, crab, and black truffles are all rather overrated, IMO.

So I’ve been working on my pizza crust for a couple years now. I have resisted using white sugar in it until tonight. Even half a teaspoon totally changed things. Much closer to the crust I’ve been looking for.

Same for me, I had eaten all that before I was out of high school except Guanciale. Thanks Mom. We smoked jowls on the farm though so not Italian guanciale but close
