hi. i'm looking for some restaurants and figured this might be a good place to ask for help? my song will be graduating from high school in a few weeks, and we'll be taking him out to eat. we asked him where he wanted to go, and he had no preference, so long that it's American/steakhouse. we're looking mainly for restaurants like Liberty Tavern, Ray's, and others but they're a bit above our pricepoint. are Gordon-Biersch or Blackfinn any good? we live in merrifield. thanks in advance

Texas Roadhouse
Logans steakhouse
longhorn Steakhouse (nicest of them on the inside)

Enjoy.

PJ skidoos or Yorkshire restaurant in Manassas. Same ownership but Yorkshire is cheaper.

Congrats on your song graduating from high school! Will your song be going to college to study music?

If you actually lived in Merrifield, your "price point" would be quite a bit higher than what you so weakly claim here. I suspect that you actually live in the downscale dumps of Falls Church City and that your son has actually been held back at Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School.

You're an idiot.

You're a fat-head, a fool, and a liar. Nobody who actually lived in Merrifield would need to go online to ask about Blackfinn or Ovvio or Sea Pearl or Brine. Go do your Social Studies homework, asshole.

Personally, if it were me, I'd take him to the Vienna Inn. Order a chilimac and a mug of ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon.

It's terrible that there are to many tuff guys that type BS on this site. Stay on the computer and stay in your cars cause you will get got one of these days. Pusses!! Little kids or older men that live in there Moms basement! LOL!

You never know who you'll be sitting next to at the Vienna Inn. Everyone from VDOT road crews to Supreme Court clerks eats and rubs shoulders there. It's the chili dogs and Budweiser that made them famous though.

Crystal City Restaurant have good steaks at a good price.

Entertainment is also pretty good for a High School Grad!

Jesus was the song of God.

You only graduate from HS once.

You are talking about a 18 year old boy, food rules.

Chima is a "Brazilian" Steak House but some good unlimited eats.

Please Asshole... We don't want your "help."

On the contrary, dumbo. You need all the help you can get and then some. You can't even keep your scallops straight, for crying out loud. Not to mention your fictitious ferry boats and phony Florida trips. You should be thankful for whatever sort of advice and guidance you can get here, seeing as your broad-based inferiority leaves you in much deeper than desperate need of such.

But hey, ask an adult to let you try out one of these today. Woohoo!

Wrong again, queer boy. Why the fuck would I care about moderately priced American restaurants in and around Merrifield for a graduation dinner?

You, being ever obsessed with me, seem to think I am. Then, you go and fuck up the the facts. Merrifield has a household income somewhere between $110K and $115K. So, price point will be quite variable for those that live there. What if the OP lives in Yorktowne Square Apartments? He probably isn't inclined to drop $75-$100 per person. Further, you don't know the size of OP's party which could factor into price.

All in all, you've simply proven once again that your an insufferable asshole that is obsessed with me.

> Don't let it rain on... Uh-oh. Too late.

Got back about an hour ago and not a drop fell during the parade. Another fail on your part. In fact, it's still not raining. I think I'll fire up the grill for the strips and open a nice bottle of wine and enjoy some time on the deck. You of course will simply cook a Gwaltney wiener on your hibachi under your carport all the while thinking about how much better I have it...

Because you can't stand Merrifield or Ballston or Vienna or Tysons or any of the dozens of other nearby places that make your decaying shithole of a home look so horribly bad. Falls Church City is a dead zone -- a land that time passed by.

LOL! The OP already indicated that he was put off by actual price-points at the likes of Liberty Tavern, which is at best a moderately-priced gastropub.

> What if the OP lives in Yorktowne Square Apartments?

Did you mean the Yorktowne Square Condominiums next to Gatehouse?

Clearly not, if Liberty Tavern is over his head.

Just your transparent lies and unwavering stupidity.

Wow! No rain over the whole 20 minutes. Hopefully, the pony rides and moon-bounce were not rained out either.

You don't have room for a deck in Falls Church, you don't own a nice bottle of wine, and cuts of steak actually appropriate for grilling would include ribeyes, hangers, flatirons, and skirts. I suppose you could grill a porterhouse and give the strip side to the dog as a chew-toy.

As is so often the case, there will be others doing the cooking and serving for me this evening. Perhaps I will have the scallops. LOL!

I actually went with the halibut last night. Beautifully done with pepper sauce on a bed of wilted spinach and mushroom risoto alongside. It was just wonderful! And all for just $175 for the two of us.

Even if any of the above were true, why would that prompt me to ask about moderately priced restaurants in and around the Merrifield area. You're suffering from a serious cognitive dissonance here, faggot.

And? You have a point here? What the fuck are you attempting to convey here? Do you even know?

Sure. Many of them are off of Gatehouse and back up to Gatehouse.

Again, other than your own stupidity, what evidence do you have that I started this thread? You claim it is my alleged hatred of Merrifield. However, if you weren't such an obsessed asshole troll that needs to see me in every thread, you'd realize that there is neither an endorsement or indictment of Merrifield in the original post.

> Wow! No rain over the whole 20 minutes.

Parade was a bit over an hour as it has been for a number of years now.

Not a drop of rain yesterday in Falls Church. I guess it's just another benefit of living there versus some outside the beltway hovel with a carport and an asphalt driveway.

> You don't have room for a deck in Falls Church,

Yeah, thanks, but I'll go with Steven Raichlen's word over yours. (Go ahead, Google him).

"Strip steak: The multiplicity of names—New York strip, club steak, Kansas City steak, shell steak—attests to the popularity of this steak. Tender (but not too tender); well-marbled (i.e., generously endowed with fat); and richly flavored—what more could you ask for in a steak? Not that you asked, but a center cut New York strip is Steven Raichlen’s favorite cut."

http://barbecuebible.com/2013/08/15/the-10-best-steaks-for-grilling/

Nothing beats a dry aged USDA Prime bone in strip on the grill. (Go ahead, Google USDA Prime).

I suppose you figured you deserved a break yesterday and headed to the golden arches. Couldn't get the grocery store bought hibachi lit under the carport?

Fanboi is such a fraud Wrote:

> I actually went with the halibut last night.

Of course you did. You're just too stupid to know better than to order fish or seafood on the Monday evening of a holiday weekend. It had a nice pepper sauce to mask the fact you were eating at least 4 day old fish. This is yet another in a long line of attempts by you to look like a big shot and you end up revealing yourself to be a little shit.

God, but you're a moron. Like scallops, fresh fish in great variety can be had in this market 365 days a year. Your oenological experiences here have meanwhile been limited to humiliation over botched vintages and appellations along with over-hyped and desperately staged photos from local Total Beverage outlets. And I guess Steven Raichlen is going to serve as your new Dave Pasternak here??? What a positive hoot! You fucked up again, douche. Scallop season is NOT long past, and strip steaks are NOT a good choice for the grill. You of course are just as clueless about steaks as you are about fish, wine, scallops, coffee, traffic, geography, baseball, ferry boats, and -- well, let's face it -- pretty much every other topic that's ever come up here. You are just an all-around stupid-ass Falls Church failure, one who seems mysteriously intent upon reproving the point, day after day after day.

So I guess maybe your feelings were a little hurt by my spending the equivalent of your entire week's grocery budget on a small-scale meal for two, but that's just the way the cookie crumbles. I have that kind of financial clout behind me, and you do not. You can't afford to live where I live, eat where I eat, or do what I do. Wallow in the inferiority, dude. It's what defines you.

One more time -- The Pride of Culmore.
Superior to EVERYTHING in Falls Church.

Bought many kegs there back in the late 70's when Mike was alive. He is gone, and the now the chili dogs suck.

Mollie is gone now as well, and son Phillip bolted off to Connecticut. But Mollie finally sold the place to Marty because he'd worked there for years and knew what made the place tick. Same for Katie Herron, who started at the Inn as an 18-year old in 2002. The dogs are meanwhile exactly the same. Nothing has changed. They are turkey dogs today and always have been, and they still sell more than 10,000 of them a month. There's nothing like them.

Great American Restaurants offer good, safe food at reasonable prices. A good lunch for 4 of us is usually under 80 bucks. Bout as cheep as it gets these days for sit-down meal.

Thai is a good value and usually safe and delicious. High heat quick cooking. Avoid craptastic chains like Olive Garden, Applebees.

Also DogfishHead is good

Yes, the Virginian is a great place, and just like the Vienna Inn down the street, it has long been cherished by the community it serves. All sorts of terrific down-home food at better than reasonable prices, and ya gotta love the chickens too. And it opens at 6:00 AM every day except Sunday, when they wait until 7:00 AM. Otherwise, mom-and-pop places have always been a short-lived breed. Small businesses of all sorts fail at spectacular rates, and eateries as a group may be the worst among the bunch. Better to love the ones we've got than lament the ones we've lost.

I wouldn't microwave a hotdog, but then I buy excellent hotdogs.

There isn't a difference between cheap and expensive hot dogs that would relate to a microwave. They're just the same in a microwave's eye.

If this thread were considering all restaurants and not just those that are American, I would add Ding How over in Springfield to the list. Those Chinamen that run that place may not be the friendliest, but damn can they cook.

It has been a few years since I moved out of Springfield. When did Ding How close down?

I remember that lime green paint, and nobody spoke English except the lady that took the orders.

You're an ass. A really dumb one. You can't afford to live where I live, eat where I eat, or do what I do. And you know nothing at all about food service. Call up a couple of the places listed below and see what they can do for you in terms of getting FRESH fish to you by 6:00 AM daily at various price points. Not sure that any of them will have established routes to a wasteland like Falls Church, but call MFCA or some similar such resource if you have trouble finding what you want. They'll be happy to help as best they can.

Blah blah blah. Just a massive word salad to amounts to a steaming pile of horse shit. You claimed there is no room for a deck in Falls Church. You were then shown a number of homes on the market all of which have a deck. You were wrong. Own it like a man or continue to weasel your way around it like a pussy. We all know which route you will go, faggot ass pussy.

It may have rained in the wee hours of the morning on Monday while you were undoubtedly up obsessing about me and seeing me in threads about Merrifield and Fairfax Station. Did I miss any? It's hard to keep track of all the places you think I post.

However, from the initial event of the day (the Beyer Automotive 3K fun run) to the time the last vendor shut down, not a drop of rain fell in Falls Church.

As for claiming it rained, let's refresh:

Nothing of consequence was noted above. Like the uncultured boob you are, you ordered four day old fish. Your halibut was purchased Friday morning for the weekend. You ate it on Monday night. As you pointed out, it was "done with pepper sauce." It is the oldest restaurant trick in the book and it betrayed you. Fish specials on Sunday and Monday that come slathered in heavy and flavorful sauce are designed to mask the more pungent flavor of aging fish.

Strips are found on every reputable steakhouse menu in this country. And they are all grilled.

Wrong again asshole. It was true when it was posted and it is true today. A 2000 vintage of either of those bottles is not and has not been available for some time at Total Wine. Because you are clueless as to what vintage years mean, you just dismiss them.

Here, asshole, the floor is yours. Tell me a local place and provide evidence that both of those wines are available for me to walk into the shop and photograph both of them. First, even if you could name such a place, the odds that the Palmer is just sitting there on the shelf for me to pick up a take a picture of are slim to none.

Now's your chance to put up or shut up. Man enough to do it or will you pussy out as usual?

You haven't explained shit. In fact, per usual, you pussed out and dodged a few accusations.

Once again, you've completely derailed a perfectly reasonable thread because of your obsession with me.

Longhorn is good in some ways - the food tastes great, their peach tea is fantastic, and the interior makes you feel like you're at a five-star steakhouse. The last two times I've eaten there, though, I felt like crap by the time I finished my steak. Flushed face, sweating, dizzy, felt like I was going to pass out. I think they use MSG or something in their steaks, and this is the only place this happens to me - never at Texas Roadhouse (the best IMO) or Logan's.

Definitely not at a place that masks the 4+ day old fish with a "pepper sauce." As the above poster noted, you inadvertently revealed that the fish was not fresh when you told us it came in a pepper sauce. You're just not an experienced enough diner to know better.

LOL! You have the palate of a four-year old and the vocabulary of a two-year old. Meanwhile, May is about the toughest month of the year for particularly east coast halibut, but it can still be had FRESH from top purveyors by those with the means to pay for it.

Do you happen to know what these are, by the way...

UPS and Fedex don't accept packages on Sunday.

Neither had delivery that Monday.

So you think restaurants get their day's provisions via FedEx or UPS. Office and cleaning supplies maybe. Stocks of napkins, flatware, glassware, and tableware maybe. The day's meat, fish, fruit, and produce? Not so much. Maybe if Falls Church had an actually credible restaurant, you'd understand a bit more about how all this "farm-to-table" stuff works.

If you knew anything about fishing, then you'd understand that other than maybe something local like rockfish, which still is unlikely, any other way will be even longer away from the water.

Simply clueless. While some purveyors will put product and some gel-paks in a styrofoam container and send it off to your house via FedEx or UPS, this is not how things work on a commercial scale. Your so nearly lifeless "Blue Apron" brain has led you astray once again.

Seafood marketing has meanwhile come quite a long way from what it was 20 years ago. Only soft-brained google-dorks continue to believe such old wives' tales as that it is inadvisable to order fresh fish at a restaurant on Monday. Your treasured though tiny little Takumi opens at 11:30 Monday mornings, you know.

Figured out the difference between sweet peppers and hot peppers yet by the way, or would the food-stooge still be working on that one?

Reminder: The best cuts of steak to prepare on the grill are Ribeye/Delmonico/Spencer/Entrecôte, Hanger, Flatiron, and Skirt.

Never claimed it did. However, your halibut was not purchased on Monday which happened to be a holiday. It was purchased on Friday and likely caught on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday in the North Pacific.

All that's happened is that simpletons like you continue to remain uninformed and the restaurant industry knows this.

I've grown both in the garden for 15+ years. The difference, of course, is inconsequential as it relates to this conversation. A sauce made of sweet peepers can easily mask the aroma and taste of pungent 4+ day old fish, particularly if the peppers were roasted prior. Simply put, sweet, hot, it doesn't matter. You thinking it does matter simply shows how little you know about such affairs.

In your opinion, which has been shown to not amount to much. The bone in dry aged USDA prime is a magnificent steak for grilling which is why it is on the menus of numerous fine steakhouses around the globe. Of course you continue to ignore that well established yet inconvenient fact.

Here's a tip for you, however. Know where you are when you order a Delmonico. We both know you won't be traveling to eat and any high end destination, but for those of us that do, there is a difference.

Still waiting for you to inform us where I might be able to walk into a retail wine shop and simply take a picture of a 2000 Lascombes next to a 2000 Palmer. Something tells me you'll puss out on that request as well.

"Seafood marketing" hasn't changed much at all. And the laws of space and time haven't changed at all. Having something shipped overnight was your best possible case. It is the only case around here, as unlikely as it remains, to have halibut of any sort:

Any other way will require even more time out of the water. How do you think that it gets to a local distributor? Are they meeting the Great Atlantic Halibut Fleet landing in Dundalk? The fish elves then work through the night to offload, process, package, pick and pack your order, and then reload a truck to rush-deliver your precious 4 oz of fish just for you? Idiot. lol

As noted, east coast halibut is in short supply in May, but it is still available at the right price. You of course know less than jackshit about any aspect of this. Like your entirely fabricated claims of skiing at Killington, golfing in Tahoe, eating at Esca, riding on non-existent water taxis, and traveling to Florida when you were plainly right here in NoVa the entire time, this latest bit of vapid tripe is just more of your desperate lame-ass folly and nonsense. You just can't stand the fact that I and others can afford to enjoy top-notch scallops and halibut on such a regular basis while you cannot. You're not too happy about a certain grade of upscale coffee either, it seems.

The difference rather plainly underscores the grade-school, dumbass nature of your initial assumptions about what a "pepper sauce" might be. Palate of a freaking four-year old!

Actually, it sang harmony to the melody of the delicate sweet flavors of the fish itself. That's why the chef prepared it. God, but you are a food-stooge of epic proportion.

None of which you have ever visited except in your absurdly warped and google-guided imagination. And the actual question of course was over your hapless stumble in claiming to have been throwing strip steaks onto the backyard grill. These are NOT the best steaks for backyard grilling. With superior taste, texture, and marbling, a ribeye (by any of its names) would have been a better choice.

Way to make an ass of yourself, Esca-boy! Delmonico is merely one of several popular names for a ribeye. It has no fixed or formal definition of its own, but rather comes from Delmonico's Restaurant in lower Manhattan (another place you have never visited by water taxi) where ribeyes were once famously popular. Oh, and by the way, you can't afford to live where I live, eat where I eat, or do what I do. And you know what you can do about that and why.

Neither of them was a target. They were only two mid-grade examples of the Margaux appellation, the Palmer these days being the better of the two. Neither of course is an actual Chateau Margaux, and neither is any sort of especially impressive bottle of wine. Hundreds of thousands of bottles of each are produced every year. But in the dreadful state of despair you had brought yourself to back in the day, you would have anxiously lined up and photographed whatever Total Wine bottles of Margaux you could find -- after sticking your clever little post-it note on them of course. Transparent moron!

> Something tells me you'll puss out on that request as well.

Something tells me that you are about 1% as clever as you think you are. I'm being rather generous there of course.

Think a little farm-to-table here, dude. "The Fleet" is out catching cat food and fish sticks, while like small-batch craft brewers, fresh fishers are day-boat harvesting and resetting along one line at a time. Preprocessed on board, the catch is iced, packed, and driven from the docks for a flight to BWI. The fishing elves in Jessup meanwhile do indeed work through the night to get completed product onto refrigerator trucks and out the door NLT 4:00 AM for the 45-minute run (at that hour) down to Vienna. The trucks roll in down here and in-house prep crews get to work. Fish will be cooked and on the table by noon. It's not cheap, but there are people here willing to pay for it, which is what makes it all go.

With a pepper sauce "to mask the 4 day old flavor".. LOL

And then there's reality 'dude.' There isn't enough of an Atlantic halibut fishery left to have any commercial operations around it. It's most all incidental catch by commercial longliners and dredges, which aren't running as day boats and aren't "resetting one line at a time" (which is fucking ridiculous), and imports from the other side of the Atlantic (like the Norwegian farmed halibut that Congressional was pushing for Memorial Day weekend which you probably ate).
The planes are Fedex and UPS for which shipments need to be there on the same schedule as everything else which typically rules out much of anything coming in that day. Shipped overnight doesn't mean caught and shipped overnight. The only thing that they're unloading in Jessup are trucks (not boats), most from other processors which move product up and down the East Coast from other areas just like the wholesalers located there move their own local products to other East areas. Most of which like NAFTCO don't deliver on Sundays and didn't work Memorial Day.

Not to mention that 40% of the fish sampled by Oceana at restaurants in the DC area was found to be mislabeled and all of the sushi restaurants tested sold mislabeled product with 80% of samples being mislabeled.

Quote

Highlights

Escolar was substituted for white tuna in every sushi venue tested in this study. Escolar, a snake mackerel not related to tuna at all, can cause unpleasant digestive effects for some who eat more than a few ounces. These undesirable health impacts make it even more important that a consumer knows what
fish they are eating, especially those sensitive to escolar’s side effects.

Snapper and tuna sold in the D.C. area also followed the national trend as the most mislabeled fish. All but one of the mislabeled snapper sold in sushi venues was actually tilapia, a farmed freshwater fish that is far from the ocean-living snapper it pretends to be.

One expensive restaurant in the nation’s capital swapped the imperiled Atlantic halibut for the more sustainable Pacific halibut advertised on the menu.

As noted by the above poster, Atlantic Halibut is classified as endangered or vulnerable depending on who you ask. In either case, they are not commercially fished.

I do that quite frequently. I'll be there again for about 12 days this summer and again sometime around the end of the year. All in all, about four trips a year to Florida. You'll still be stuck in some shithole hovel with a car port and asphalt driveway outside the beltway stewing away and obsessing over me.

You're so called upscale coffee costs less per cup than what some douchebag hipster pays per cup at Starbucks. How upscale can it be? Of course shitbird like you of limited means might think it is upscale!

Damn, you're one dumb son of a bitch. First, you think decks don't exist in Falls Church now you think gardens are non existent. You had your ass handed to you on decks and you're about to on gardens. It isn't that hard to set aside 600-800 sq. ft. for a vegetable garden if your plot is a 1/4 acre which is about 10,000 sq. ft. As my lot is considerably bigger than that, having a decent sized vegetable garden is a no brainer.

In fact, the Falls Church Garden Club is quite an active group. Dipshit.

I merely quoted your post. There was no initial assumption that could have possibly been implied from my post. It's your overactive imagination and bullshit taking over your feeble mind again. I said nothing whatsoever about the spice level of the sauce.

> Actually, it sang harmony to the melody of the

4+ day old fish masked by a pepper sauce. We get it.

Back to the Vendordud shit? I still don't know nor do I care who Vendordud is. This is you placing me in every thread you visit on this site or wherever else you waste your days away. To be fair to you, if I had a hovel with a carport, I wouldn't want to go outside and be reminded of what a miserable failure my life became either!

Again in your opinion. My connoisseurs of beef prefer the USDA prime bone in dry aged strip. You, having never had the pleasure of eating either prime or dry aged beef can only resort to what you undoubtedly found on some third rate food blog. The simple fact remains that it is on the menus of numerous fine steakhouses around the globe.

True, if you are eating it along the east coast and a few other places. See, this is how we can all tell that you've never really traveled far beyond your outside the beltway hovel or eaten in many fine restaurants. In some places in this country, a Delmonico is a top sirloin. In others, it is a strip. There is no set definition. In short, you failed AGAIN!

A bunch of word salad that amounts to blah blah blah. Imbecile, it has been pointed out and you cannot refute the simple fact that it would have been impossible for me to walk into Total Wine at that time and take a picture of either of those 2000 wines. They had long been off the shelves at that point. This isn't a hard concept to grasp unless you're some hapless retard. You must be a hapless retard.

Those wines were not available at Total Wine then anymore than they are today. So, your little theory falls flat on its face (just like you do post after post)!

Unremarkably, you are still stuck on the cat food and fish sticks thing. Like factory farms, factory ships are not the extent of the industry. Atlantic halibut is meanwhile a "species of concern" in New England waters. That means a limit of one fish per boat per day. As you don't understand, there are a lot of boats, and they operate in a lot of waters, including the ones just a little further to the north.

You once again fail to see the trees for the forest. Many companies own and operate airplanes. All that is needed is a plane and a pilot, plus one airport from which to take off and another at which to land.

Trucks coming in from BWI among other points of origin. Processed in the overnight, product is back on trucks and out on the road by 4:00 AM, reaching Vienna well before 5:00.

And with its tiny 4500 sqft per person, well more than 40% of houses in Falls Church are on lots too small to accomodate a deck. What would that say about the rest?

Imagine you and "the above poster" each saying the same stupid misguided thing. It's uncanny, I tell you!

No, you've never played golf or done anything else in Tahoe. For one thing, golfers know what a "knife" and a "dogleg" are, where you did not. For another, you did not react to the mention of Tahoe landmarks. Such absences of appropriate responses are one of the things that polygraph experts take special note of.

Regadless of what the future may hold, you were clearly NOT in Florida when you recently claimed to be, and you have NOT visited many of the sites and venues there that you claim to have visited. You are a depraved and scandalous liar who simply spews shit in a lame and misguided hope of keeping pace and saving face.

Just pointing out once again that you live in a cramped and decaying shithole where none of the finer things are to be found. This is why those with actual money in their pockets so routinely live somewhere other than in the dumps of Falls Church City. Fairfax County as a whole, by the way, has well over 10,000 sqft of space per person. You failures in Falls Church have quite a bit less than half that.

You have confused the words "imply" and "infer". You have also reacted here from within the rather harsh bounds of your own upbringing and experience. "Pepper sauce" to you means only some fiery paste designed to obscure the flavors and aromas of food. That's quite a sorry legacy to have to live with.

> To be fair to you, if I had a hovel with a carport,

Unlike you, I live in the nice part of NoVa. I can't see my neighbor's house -- much less his trash cans -- but I can easily afford to enjoy all of the finer things that this area has to offer. Such as frequent dining out at high-quality eateries, some of which from time to time offer selections such as wonderful scallops wirh coconut risoto and fresh halibut with pepper sauce.

None of which do their cooking on any two-bit grill on any cramped little deck, a place where strip steaks would simply not be the best choice. It's not nice to fool Mother Nature, and Mother Nature definitely did not design strip steaks for backyard grilling.

Read my lips, bozo. You didn't walk in looking for those particular bottles. In your hour of desperate need, you were looking for ANY bottles of anything at all labelled Margaux that you could put your little post-it note on and quickly snap a picture of before somebody called security.

> They had long been off the shelves at that point.

LOL! There are hundreds of thousands of bottles of each of those wines produced every year. Neither is any sort of big deal wine. Fifteen months ago, you could have gotten the Lascombes off the internet for cheap, as the screen-shot pointed out so clearly. You could get the Palmer off the internet today as well, but it would of course not be so cheap as the Lascombes.

> Those wines were not available at Total Wine then
> anymore than they are today.

LOL! Like your in-bred cousin in Florida, Total Wine itself was just a place-holder. The concept is apparently something that you -- as a typical dumbass -- simply don't understand. Once again, the wines in question are not nearly at the level of quality that you want to pretend them to be.

This is such a FFU threads, off the rails in so many ways.

Feel sorry for the OP!
