Even though is still on the usual french style of undercooking meat. And i am talking, not in a rare fearful way, i like raw meat, but when meat will benefit from a better cooking (higher heat) in order to get browned they just should go for it. French like braising, which is ok, but when they roast they need to pump up those gas stoves.... French dont know how to cook meat (and mostly fish with few exceptions) so Lami jean may not be be surpise. Unless you order any bird they serve when you may just get the best pigeon of your life. you have to... also try Cru in Nyc... surprise.... best stratis dear Chuck,

You've had FOUR posts. I have to say, man, I am most disappointed. What made me add you to my daily (or every couple of days) rotation was looking back at your older posts. I guess I didn't notice the frequency or probably I'd have not bothered. Chuck –

One thing I couldn't find is their hours or where tehy are located! I am probably not looking hard enough. I really like that the chef is sharing recipes and taking pictures himself.
