Really loved the vinaigrette with the simple salad. The pie had a generous amount of lobster, the tail meat was a bit chewy but the claw and knuckle meat was perfect. I don’t think there was any tarragon @TheCookie but there might have been some fennel on top. Bread pudding can’t top the cheesecake but was still delicious.

So what’s the reigning champ pot pie? Lobster or truffle fried chicken?
4 pot pies are on the menu this week…
Has anyone had the truffle chicken pp, lobster pp, and the wellington? Curious as to which is (arguably) the best- most particularly between the pot pies. The shroom one sounds/looks good as well but I’m the only shroom follower in this house.

My vague recollection is that @PorkyBelly has had them all, but I don’t think he’s posted a comparative list. ;)’
To make matters more complicated, there’s also a surf and turf this wk, and I do wonder if the lobster there would be better than in the pot pie…

The Fried Chicken over Lobster? I love me some Fried Chicken but it seems so rich!
Personally, I would flip flip the positions of the truffle chicken and the lobster, otherwise your ranking is spot on. This weekend, I am trying the surf and turf–we will see if it can crack the top 5!

So am I! We’ll have to compare notes here.

Just as I was about to proceed with the truffle chicken @NewTrial’s comment pulls me back into neutral. Sigh… indecision is a disease.
Whichever way I do go, however, I WILL try a slice of the cheesecake (as perhaps one of the very rare and few cheesecake-haters out there) with the hope that it will be so revelatory that it turns me into a cheesecake-lover, or, in other words, a normal person.

I guess you just have to get both then.

Agreed but while I wish I could, I really can’t justify how much I’ve already spent on food the past few months. Trying to (not really) cut tiny corners wherever I can ha. o_O

I am sure many (myself included) cannot justify the money spent on ice cream and pie, let alone food.

I hit 3 digits on frozen dessert products.

they were both really close and really good. the only reason i had the chicken slightly ahead of the lobster was because the lobster tail meat was just slightly over. the claw and knuckles were perfect though.
did you get an answer on tarragon-gate?

No, I was going to order and go last week but all Westside excursions were nixed. 
Too busy this week. Question: were they tasting menu only pre-covid?
I hit 3 digits within the first 3 weeks in frozen delights.

By the time I had visited Leo, my frozen treat total was well into the 3 digits.
