No dine-about-town deal, though, so it was expensive. I think I agree, though, the desserts are the best thing there. Though my sea bream with fava beans was actually tasty (just not filling).<br /><br />The best dessert is their lemon tart brulee.<br /><br />I'm not overly convinced that I'd go there again, though... except maybe to duck in for an expensive dessert treat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17865316.post-78419807050260827172007-01-29T05:51:00.000-08:002007-01-29T05:51:00.000-08:00oh it all sounds so horrific!! both experiences. i...oh it all sounds so horrific!! both experiences. i'm sorry. i'd be LIVID if i got a friggin skate wing and nothing else. and i can't believe you waited that long at the other place. i think i would've left.pinknesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16753673917404683996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17865316.post-75931691370841421842007-01-28T11:57:00.000-08:002007-01-28T11:57:00.000-08:00Hey, PE!

Re: your comment on shortexact-- that's great you called the manager, though I wish he had a more useful and/or apologetic response than simply stating what you basically already knew. Hopefully you'll hear back from them soon.<br /><br />And, about Antarctic cuisine... if you find a place, just let me know and I'm down! Though we might have more luck trying something from another continent :-)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />EricAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17865316.post-45280131556658341782007-01-26T11:00:00.000-08:002007-01-26T11:00:00.000-08:00Aw, PE.

I never wanted to rain on your enthusiasm for DAT, so I kept my mouth shut until now.<br />I don't care for the program at all, for at least two reasons: 1) the restaurant is going to try to fob off something inexpensive. 2) the servers hate the fact that you're only spending $20, and even a 20% tip on $20 is not going to make their day, so they take it out on you.cookiecrumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741894180391507513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17865316.post-10974521648446772172007-01-26T10:13:00.000-08:002007-01-26T10:13:00.000-08:00"...so they honestly didn't look this good in real..."...so they honestly didn't look this good in real life."<br /><br />Ouch! I hope they've learned now not to make PE angry. Good work on doing this sleuthing though, and finding about the missing side dishes. Sort of ridiculous, the whole point of DAT is to encourage people to eat out, so you'd think these places would really try to show themselves off during DAT and get themselves some new repeat customers, rather than pissing people off.<br /><br />I've never been to either One Market or Roy's, but thanks for your warning on both. There are too many good places out there to go to mediocrities (or worse) like these. Sorry to hear you had to put up with this nonsense -- especially that "oh-so-bitchy" (pardon the French) hostess at Roys. <br /><br />Still, best wishes for some better experiences for the rest of 2007 :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17865316.post-78600943983597983662007-01-26T06:27:00.000-08:002007-01-26T06:27:00.000-08:00Dang. You have every right to be pissed. The ser...Dang. You have every right to be pissed. The server marked you guys for dupes, I think, when he served you that dish. He must have known that it was missing the sides. Man, was he wrong! Kudos to you PE! I excused that ahi was missing from my ahi poke, (because I was in a good mood and it was $1.95), but I wouldn't have excused what happened to you and your friend. Also that story about Roy's is exactly why I'll never step foot in that place. Thanks again for the reminder.elmomonsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14102068612919963395noreply@blogger.com
