Carol,

I'm thinking from my own experiences here at home, getting rack of lamb just right can be tricky. I cook it often and it's one of those things that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.

We went to Dreams once and I ordered the lamb medium raw and kidded with the server to that effect. When it came out we both new it wasn't done right and she immediately offered to have the chef do a new one although we declined the offer. It was still very tasty but sadly, not what I wanted. So I know the lamb can be iffy, even at Dreams.... That's one of the things I often order at Antoine's because Chef Pierre never disappoints. But even there, there's always a first time.....
