Mich, especially since it was barely a salad.

What??? What a rip-off. Where’s the romaine lettuce? Looks like a handful of pea shoots and about 10 string beans. Oh my, not worth $16.90.

Yep. They are ballsy. And sometimes sassy. But, I must admit that the food is really good there.

I can't afford that but I think I can copy cat the recipe for half the cost.

OMG and I am thinking ..looking at the cherry tomatoes, that it is actually smaller than it really looks..... hummm……..I had to sign into my google account before I could end this session ?? never had to do that before ??

Welcome, Jenny!

Izsmom, I think some romaine lettuce and croutons woulda helped and at minimal extra expense for La Tour.

Aunty, they do have ono food there.

Susan, LOL!

Kat, not worth it yah.

You so funny, Mark!

Dd, Landon said that some of the shoots had a hard sprout thing on the end that shoulda been cut off too. Don't know about signing into google account. I think I'm always automatically signed in to mine.

Yah Les, me too, but I bought it for Landon, and . . . you know . . .

Nancy said...

Did the description come off of La Tour's menu? Because haricots verts was misspelled. And that salad... what a ripoff!

jalna said...

Yes Nancy, I just cut and pasted.
