Too bad Clementine's is on the West Bank, because like you say they're just off the radar. We had a wonderful meal there, but it has been a couple of years back. I remember my wife raving about the Moules AND they served a traditional Coup Denmark which had her giggling with memories of her childhoo...

I am still stoked about seeing those cookers used as movie props way back in 1967! It was awesome! Of course I'm using BGE as a generic term, but the...
