    I'm not very familiar with fancy dining, but a lot of that stuff sounds good. It makes me hungry just from reading it.

    Or someone can't read :P

    Looks good. Though I'm no expert on food. A peanut Butter sammich is michelin cuisine for me
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    Just to put this into context; You, a professional chef, are essentially asking a forum full of people who, for the most part, probably don't partake in anything more sophisticated food-wise than Wendy's, whether or not a menu created by you, a professional chef, sounds alright. No offense intended or anything, but that's like Giorgio Armani ringing me up to ask me to give his latest collection the once over.

    In that respect, I am not qualified to give you a suitable answer. I'm sure that as far as sous chef menu's go, it's alright.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I am with Max on this one. I am a person who would look at that menu and then start to think "Why the hell am I here?" Nothing on that menus looks good to me but then again, I don't go out to fine dining at all. I like simple things and I don't see simple in that menu XP
