Obviously you've never been to Kansas City!?!?! I'd give anything for some the old "Daley Machine" ways here in place of what we have.

BTW Nicko, I'd like a membership too.

So, so sorry to see it go...
The best Foie gras I've ever had was at NAHA, in Chicago, or was it The Ritz Carlton Dinning Room, at Water Tower Place? Hmmmm...maybe a tie!
Nicko, membership, please?

Talking not here in MOSCOW (Russia...)

anything that is not fast enough to run / fly / swim away will end up in the pots,
foie gras from france,
lobsters from Maine..
WAGYU beef from Australia
Crocodile from South Africa..


BUT if the USA will not let 'us' into the WTO we will ban all the fat and grasy chickenlegs from THYSSON meat (jokingly named here 'bush legs'0 and that is 1.5 million tONS every year...
