So I am not a culinary genius. At all. But I have a local German establishment that sells pate's... stuff like rabbit pate and venison pate.... very expensive but has anyone had experience with these off the normal menu pate's by chance? Worth it...? They are like $19 per pound expensive is why I ask, but so tempting. Apparently fully cooked and ready to dish out on chips or whatnot.

Just curious.

And they have an online store I guess at Germangourmet.com

I buy them and eat them on a baguette all the time. But I find them for about $5. Maybe I just get the cheap stuff. I had duck pate most recently. It's good stuff. I use it as a spread. I also eat a lot of zacusca on baguettes. It's a Romanian vegetable spread. Good stuff.

Is it healthy, and where can I find me some of this duck paste? ;)

I get the duck pate at this little Russian supermarket right off of Microsoft headquarters near Seattle. Chain supermarkets like Trader Joe's have cheap little $5 chicken pate that goes well with $1.50 baguettes. I don't know how healthy it is. It's basically a meat spread. You can get it at any European supermarket/deli or maybe chain supermarkets. When I lived in Brooklyn they had them at all the little bodegas.

I just moved here this past summer. But I was here last year interviewing. It's the safest city I've ever been to. A lot of hippies and hipsters to. Even homeless people have a master's degree and an iPhone. I grew up in Brooklyn and lived in Miami the last 7 years. Also spent a lot of time in the northeast and southeast. Seattle is definitely a unique city. A lot of non-football fans too. Everyone put their Seahawks jerseys away when they started going on a losing streak after the Dallas game and they put them back on the first week of the playoffs. Also, try getting a Seahawks fan to name more than three players on the team.

I had pork pate on toast just yesterday. I bought it at my local grocer and it came in a blue can that said Spam on the side.

Doubt they have it here in the Crapsburgh area.
