What about that shrimp with basil cream sauce you got at Barbara Jeans
several Thanksgivings ago? You seemed pretty ****ed off at the fact they
wouldn't give you any information at all about the recipe and suggested you
buy the restaurant's cookbook (which almost certainly would not have had
that recipe, since it wasn't a part of their regular menu).
