I enjoy your contributions to FITS. Perhaps you could start a new trend. The word AMAZING has been used and abused to the point of numbness. Being the maven that you are perhaps you should be the first to set the example and retire it – forever.
Foie Gras? Yum. You continue to surprise me.
“The word AMAZING has been used and abused to the point of numbness. ”
That’s why the word “amazeballs” was created. Perhaps she can start using that.
“…has been used and abused to the point of numbness.”
Reminds me of my weewee when I was twelve years old.
She should have tried the chitlins, now, those would have been “amazing.”
I’ll see what I can do…because you’re right. The word amazing is overdone.
Must be nice not to have to eat at McDonalds, amirite?
Maybe they should offer McFoie Muffins.
I hope no one “has to” eat at McDonald’s. Yikes.
What exactly does this mean?
I love it when American whites have a glass of wine and start acting like they’re too good for this and that…..ohhhh how cultured you “foodies” are.
Because I hope no one feels forced to eat processed fast food? Psht. I love when people put words in my mouth. NEXT.
This is a preview of her upcoming reports on her dining experiences in Shreveport. She won’t disappoint us.
I heard that!!!!!,
Crawdads with rice while quaffing Dixie beer = that’s good eatin there!!!!!!!!!!!
I looked up Shreveport last night and was surprised to find that it’s full of history and now seems to be a rockin’ town. My Dad mentioned being there several times in his younger days but I was too young to be interested.
Sorry to say I will not be headed to Shreveport. (Not that sorry, really.)
(sigh…) Liz, I’m the one who’s sorry. I guess that early morning caffeine over-stimulated my brain.
ha. Early morning caffeine is the BEST caffeine I have all day.
A “Food Snob” with the vocabulary of a high schooler…yeah I believe that
There is always ONE comment similar to this on everything Liz writes. Starting to think it’s from the same sad sack. You probably have a creepy shrine built for her in your bedroom.
that is terrifying!
I’ve never understood the orgasmic feeling people get with food, liquor, cigars, etc… It’s food, some is good, some is bad… I don’t think I’ve ever ate something that I wished I would have taken a picture of or felt the need to write 1000 words about.
I am very sure there are things that do give you that feeling that I definitely don’t want to read about…so that’s fair. Don’t like to read about food? Click elsewhere.
Didn’t need to click elsewhere before Will decided to compete with Red Book magazine.
hey, by all means – keep clicking here! That’$ kind of the whole point…$o thank$!
Adblock.

Based on your posts to any thread on this entire site you must be the most miserable person to have ever lived.
Well then, I guess it’s a good thing that money can buy happiness.
As a little girl, did you dream about the day you’d write on a SC political blog about food and shoes?
I dreamed of doing what I loved and getting paid for it. So yeah – I guess so! All I want out of life is happiness – I’m sorry you’ve given up on that dream for yourself.
But you sure love Budweiser, chicken livers and toxic mushrooms. Your spelling has improved though.
When did my spelling suck?
Don’t eat chicken guts and don’t know what toxic mushrooms are. I’ll drink Budweiser over any fad home brew that tastes like it’s got shit floating in it.
At least you would have a job.

I got a plan for that wine bottle.
I didn’t read any of the article, and I’m sure it was great food and all…but that roll, or whatever that is..well…looks like dog poop on top of a two leaves, with more dog poop on top of it, in a bowl.
The food might taste good, but that photograph looks disgusting. Is that mustard drizzled on top of powered sugar?
So how much did it set ya back?
I’m thinking it’s probably so pricey that, given the name of the place, the wait staff should say to those who order the most expensive items “Want orgy with that?”
You can check out the full menu here – the prices are listed. I hate when places list a priceless menu. http://www.starprovisions.com/bacchanalia.php
Thanks.
I could maybe get an appetizer, some crackers. Snag something off somebody’s plate. And wash it down with Dr. Pepper.
Liz, where is the boot trend headed for women? Is it about done? I’m trying to decide on a gift for my wife.
Perhaps an article for the guys on this site who need some shopping advice for Christmas.
No way! The boot trend is as “in” as ever – and with never ending options. Riding boots are very popular, as are ankle boots (aka booties). Let me know how else I can help – that’s a good suggestion for another post!
This looks like dog shit or some kind of bad fecal matter. Turd sausage?Nasteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
“some kind of bad fecal matter”
What would be a good kind of fecal matter?
“Chilled Main Lobster”? Does his mean they did not come from Maine. Hope they are not cheap warm water lobster.
I’m too high classed to eat Lobster.
Wikipedia History:
In North America, the American lobster did not achieve popularity until the mid-19th century, when New Yorkers and Bostonians developed a taste for it, and commercial lobster fisheries only flourished after the development of the lobster smack,[25] a custom-made boat with open holding wells on the deck to keep the lobsters alive during transport.[26] Prior to this time, lobster was considered a mark of poverty or as a food for indentured servants or lower members of society in Maine, Massachusetts, and the Canadian Maritimes, and servants specified in employment agreements that they would not eat lobster more than twice per week.[27] Lobster was also commonly served in prisons, much to the displeasure of inmates.[28] American lobster was initially deemed worthy only of being used as fertilizer or fish bait, and it was not until well into the twentieth century that it was viewed as more than a low-priced canned staple food.[29]
Have tickets for Seger in February. Will reservations be required at The Varsity on a Saturday afternoon?
What is the price? Seems like a lot of food. Just asking from a business standpoint.
It’s $85 a person (prix fixe). Up charges for some items like caviar and foie gras.
GREAT restaurant.My BF took me there last birthday(He’s loaded),but the best lobster I’ve had was,Lobster Landing in Connecticut.It’s extremely casual,BYOB,seasonal,and reasonably priced.The lobster roll is the thing.Nothing but lobster,butter and bread.
Not to be confused with a Maine lobster roll that often uses ‘lobster salad’,which is an insult to lobsters,everywhere.
Now, THAT IS news! A decent meal in Atlanta! (The picture, however, looks like a merde ténia créme surprise).
Find a great burger in SC? … My nephew’s new joint: https://www.zagat.com/b/the-10-best-new-burgers-around-the-u.s?utm_campaign=&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_content=denver&utm_term=#10
