Foie Gras gives me indigestion, so I'm in the same boat.
Last time I tried to have Foie Gras sub'ed from Atelier's tasting menu (where it admittedly posed as an amuse bouche), it did not go well.
- First I was interrogated by the waiter as to whether it was due to food intolerance, or because I simply did not like it.
- Then, the foie gras foam was simple yanked from my menu, and I received one item less than my partner.
We used to like Atelier, but since that experience we never really felt like returning.
