Steps:
- In a heavy bottomed pot, or dutch oven, heat the olive oil and the butter, over medium high heat.
- Sauté the onion until translucent (about 2 minutes).
- Add the leeks and sauté until soft (about 4-5 min).
- Add the potatoes and sauté with the onions and leeks for a couple of minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Using an immersion hand blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can work in batches using a regular blender.
- Add the heavy cream and turn the heat back up to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes so it thickens a little.
- Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Add a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Remove from heat.
- Wait for the soup to cool down to room temperature and chill for at least one hour before serving (overnight is better).
- Garnish with some chopped chives and serve.

Steps:
- To make the aioli, place the egg yolks in a blender or food processor. With the machine on, add the oil and then the vinegar in a slow, steady stream. When the mixture is emulsified, add the remaining ingredients and process until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and refrigerate.
- To make the soup, steam the lobsters for 4 minutes. When cooled, shell the partly cooked tail and claw meat. Refrigerate.
- Blanch the asparagus tips until tender, drain and refresh under cold water. Set aside. Heat the butter in a medium-size nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrot, leek and water and cook until tender. Set aside.
- Combine the cream and half-and-half in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until hot but not simmering. Add the lobster, lower the heat and cook until the lobster is done, about 2 minutes. Remove the lobster, cut the tails in half and set aside. Stir the cream mixture into the mashed potatoes. Press through a medium-mesh sieve and season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, divide the lobster among 4 shallow soup bowls and spoon in the cream mixture. Swirl in a little aioli. Garnish with the carrot mixture, chervil and chives and serve.
VICHYSSOISE
This chilled velouté is made with humble ingredients, but with a little technique, the leeks, potato, and silky crème fraîche come together for a bowl of pure luxury. Though its namesake is the spa town of Vichy, France, the cold version of this potato soup was invented at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in New York City.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a stockpot over medium heat. In a second stockpot over low heat, warm the chicken stock. Meanwhile, slice the white parts of the leeks in half lengthwise; then thinly slice. Trim and thinly slice celery. Add leeks and celery to the melted butter; gently sweat until translucent, 7-8 minutes, adding a pinch of salt halfway through. Make sure the vegetables do not take on any color.Meanwhile, slice potatoes lengthwise into 4 wedges, then roughly dice into 1-inch chunks. When the leeks and celery are translucent, add warmed stock, followed by the potatoes.
- Make a sachet: Lay a square of cheesecloth large enough to fit the herbs on a flat surface. Place thyme, parsley, bay leaf, and garlic in the middle; then wrap into a bundle and tie with butcher's twine. Submerge the sachet in the soup and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are soft, 15-20 minutes.
- When a fork easily pierces a potato, the soup is ready to be blended. First, remove the sachet. Then use a ladle to remove 1½ cups of broth; set aside. Carefully add the rest of the soup to a blender and cover. Blend, beginning on low speed, then slowly increasing to high speed. When the soup is pale and completely puréed, turn off the blender and add crème fraîche. Cover and continue blending on high speed to a light, smooth texture. Test the thickness, then add some of the reserved broth as necessary to thin the soup, and blend again. Set aside the remaining broth.
- Strain the soup (optional): In a large bowl filled with ice, chill a second bowl large enough to hold the soup. Strain the soup through a chinois or fine-mesh strainer into the chilled bowl; use the back of a ladle to help push the soup through the strainer. The vichyssoise will have a syrupy texture when it's warm, but it will become thicker and more velvety as it chills in the bowl. Let cool for 1 hour.
- When the vichyssoise is chilled, strain more reserved broth into the soup as needed to thin to desired consistency; stir well to combine. Ladle into a bowl. Shape quenelles of crème fraîche (optional): Pass about a tablespoon of crème fraîche back and forth between two spoons, smoothing and shaping it until you have formed an egg-shaped dollop, or "quenelle." Garnish each bowl with a quenelle of crème fraîche and several chive batons before serving.
VICHYSSOISE
This is a simple take on a classic cold soup that is as delicious to eat as it is to say: Vishi-swazz! It is dead easy to make as well. Just sauté potatoes with some chopped leeks, then simmer them all with stock until tender. Send the mixture through a food processor or blender, let cool, then chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Garnish with chopped chives.

VICHYSSOISE
Vichyssoise is a creamy and smooth soup made from potatoes and leeks. Traditionally served chilled, it can be enjoyed hot too if the season calls for a warming soup instead. Serve it as the first course in an elegant luncheon or as your main meal with a green salad on the side.

ANTHONY BOURDAIN'S LES HALLES VICHYSSOISE
This is an adopted recipe that I have not yet tried. The original chef comments: "I grew up on this wonderful cold soup, and when my Grandmother passed away, the recipe went with her, until I got Anthony Bourdain's wonderful cookbook, "Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook". This is so close to the Vichyssoise I loved, and you will too!"

Steps:
- I a large, heavy bottom pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. Once butter is melted, add the leeks and sweat for 5 minutes, making sure they do not take on any color.
- Add potatoes and cook for a minute or two, stirring a few times.
- Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook on low heat, gently simmering for 35 minutes, or until the leeks and potatoes are very soft. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
- Slowly, and in SMALL batches, puree the soup at a high speed in the blender. Do this bit by bit, never filling the blender too high. Make sure the benders lid is on, and lean on the top when you turn on. If not the burn you will get is awful, and a most frequent accident in even professional kitchens.
- Return soup to the cooking pot and whisk in cream and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Return to a boil, reduce to simmer and cook 5 minutes. If you want to thin soup out, add more broth, if needed.
- Transfer soup to the mixing bowl an chill over the ice bath, stirring occasionally. When soup is at Room temperature, and only at room temperature, cover in plastic wrap and put into the refrigerator to cool.
- Check seasoning, sprinkle with chives and serve in chilled bowls.
- This soup DOES get better over time. Keep covered with plastic, not foil in the refrigerator, or it will pick up other tastes.
