I threw up last time I ate creme brulee.

I really haven't been that impressed with it either. Maybe I just haven't eaten it from the right places, but I've never had a creme brulee that I thought was amazing. Good, but not what it's cracked up to be.

That's tragic, Shaggy.

A good crème brulée (or crème brûlée, if you use the traditional spelling) is one of the most fantastic things one can ever have, and is almost certainly my favorite dessert. . . it just never seems to last long enough.

Out of curiosity, Andrew, did you have crème brulée at French restaurants, or elsewhere?  I've found most American restaurants are terribly overpriced and inept.

Really? Your favorite? Molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream…yum yum.  :)

I don't know how to do it on the computer, but on my phone all I have to do is hold down the letter that I want some sort of accent mark to it, and it pops up with a little menu thing that lets me choose from all of them.

Oh, well, that explains it. On my phone, if I hold down a key it gives me the number. :-/

Unless it has Grand Manier (or however the liquor is spelled) it isn't technically creme brulee and i have had both bad and good ones... and while it's not my favorite i like it done right

Beef with garlic sauce, wonton soup, and dumplings (from Chen's Kitchens). Delicious!!!  :)

French toast. Yummy.

That's absolute nonsense.  The standard French definition goes:  "La crème brûlée est un dessert composé de jaune d'œufs, de sucre, de crème et de vanille."  No alcohol involved.  Besides, Grand Marnier would give it a weird orange flavour.  Occasionally, alcohol is used to "flambé" the top, but this is much less common and less traditional.

Shag:  Using the US-International keyboard, right-alt will do it, or by using the apostrophe (') (assuming you want acute accents).  Otherwise, use an ANSI chart for numpad.

Got to love that description.  Egg yellows, cream and vanilla.  Way to take a great dessert and make it sound unappetizing.

It reads like a recipe for paint thinner.  No poetry. ;)
