Only Dave, only Dave.

I love Kentucky Fried Chicken. Sue me.

I will say that when I was traveling around Europe, I drank beer with almost every meal, and wine the other times. Or coffee or tea in the mornings. Why? It was cheaper or about the same price as water or coke.

Tomatoe soup with elbows and cheddar. And Texas Pete's.

NYC, water.

Beef stew.

Pfft!

Andy, now I want to know what you ate.

Thank you for that contribution, Andy!

But the gas station/pack of peanuts and beer has no appeal to either of you? Sheesh! Snobs....

Elizabeth and Michael, your curds look wonderful. Michael, if you couldn't get yuzu juice, what would you (I) substitute?

winodj, on your travels, drink lots of Budvar, Pillsner Urquel, and Hefewizen!

I'd just add water and put it in the sink to soak.

Aside from all of this, I thought we were talking about being peckish and finding food. Don't people make plans for fine dining?

YUM! And welcome!

My first time, I was working the fryolators at work, and my boss wanted to try it. I said it tasted fishy, he said I was crazy, he decided not to use it. Feh.

Offended me? Not at all. But you still have to get to my bio and say howdy!

Yeah, it's weird. I have no idea why it could be. Whatever happened to supertaster thread?

Can you make both for me and then I'll judge?

Okay. Now that I've read this... are we talking about fine dining or food? I rarely go for the former, and am quite happy with the latter. For great food, I like neon signs. I like Ma's. I like where the locals eat, unless they eat at chains. Diners are usually consistent. And I like to eat at the bar. Another lowbrow post from Elyse.

With that criteria, you're going to end up at the Olive Garden or the Cheesecake Factory. That's what I was going to say.

Is he gone? I asked him to find the name of a place I went to in Prague in '96. It was damn tasty, filing and CHEAP. Well, what in Prague isn't? In France, eat at the bars in cafes or it'll be more expensive! I have a sneaking suspicion he's gone.

Thanks for your kind welcome. I just read your "bio" You go girl! Really? I don't recall you saying 'hey' there.... It goes without me!

I just HATE canola oil. I use it, but it always makes everything taste fishy to me. Claire, you reminded me of the yummiest fries. When you have a rare/medium rare cheese burger, and the cheese has melted on the fries a little. Then you cut the burger in two and all the juice runs out, and you sop it up with the fries. Mmmmmm. I am so hungry.

Spencer, are you feeling okay?
