It's hard to find a good escargot place in L.A. Brandywine in Woodlandhills has a tasty one, we're there in a few weeks and I will post pics if you want to see. -MW

Food there IMO is amazing and from what I heard consistent. Honestly I'm not much of drinker so I let others choose the wine and I have a taste. I have has some amazing wines but my taste buds are not good enough to appreciate them. Have you had any nice ... 

Some good , some bad

Even though I just returned from dinner, your post ensured I could eat again, about right now. Snails. Double portion

I believe I will be going to Les Halles Saturday, for some of the best snails in NYC.

I\'m sure there are better ones to be found in their spiritual homeland but these are probably the best in Austria. Freshly consumed today, together with a minute of silence... Btw. got a Ghanian friend visiting and were surprised to find out that snails ...  

YUM!!!

We just had some fresh stone/rock crabs and ridgeback shrimp that I think you would've enjoyed. There is a warning right now not to eat dungeness crabs =( -MW

Guess I'll just enjoy my chilli dog... : ) What's with the stone crab warning? Helen

DPH warning...

CA DPH has issued a warning not to eat crab from the California/Oregon coast. There was a huge algae bloom from El Nino, domic acid is a toxin spread by this. DPH detected high level in crabs which can cause serious health problems if consumed. -MW

That's sad....

Isn't the rock crab season about over anyway? Do you have seasonal seafood like Louisiana? Season/Seafood overlap Spring - Crawfish Summer - Blue Crab Fall - Oysters You can buy nearly all year long but traditionally, we stick with seasonal fresh seafood.... 

It's almost dinner time here...
