Took my 89-yo MIL to The Herbfarm last night for dinner.

You may express your disdain at your leisure.

(ALL ingredients in the meal—including salt, sugar, cooking fat and drinks — came from within 100 miles of the restaurant)

1. Nice conversation opening gambit. Looking for a brawl?

[brooklynite]

2. Acknowledging reality. Number of folks here express hostility to spending this kind of money on food

[Ptah]

7. Maybe the hostility is towards braggart behavior.

8. Wow. Lol. I was wondering if this was the intent of post when I read after first waking.

After my 3 coffees later I decided to check back in because of the feel I got reading the OP. Seems to be the intent. Just a wow.

Let me tell poster about some of my really nice meals over a lifetime and we can share our snootiness, I guess.

Such a wow.

9. It's your money, your Mil. Live long and prosper. More importantly: how was the food ...

... did you get to see the kitchen?

[Polly Hennessey]

3. Well, I don't know.

Did she feast on rosemary, sage, parsley, and thyme? Sprinkled with cilantro 🌿.

5. More like nibbled...

Started with a tour of their herb Garden. The sorrel was particularly interesting.

4. I almost thought you were talking about a cannabis dispensary

6. Is it this one?

Looks amazing!

10. Seattle is a long ways from Brooklyn.

More than 100 miles.

11. That's not the one that was caught buying their "sustainably sourced" goods for Kroger, I hope?

Big expose in the NYTimes awhile ago.

But otherwise, it sounds great!o
