Yeah they sold it 2004. I took his word for it since he works in data analysis for the industry.

The dinosaurs were so much better than the robots.

Romania might take note. Tsuica, the Romanian national drink (plum brandy and it’s fucking awful) is available in stores, but everyone I’ve ever met there insists that you can’t trust the store-bought tsuica and drives up into the mountains to buy it from some Roma (gypsy) guy who distills it himself and sells it in…

At least once a week. 

JUICY. IS. THE. WORST. 

It’s funny, because most of my favorite places are those Greek diner-style restaurants where the menu covers the whole front wall and the attitude is “I’ve got a fryer, a grill, and an oven and I’m prepared to make anything I can cook on one of those in 10 minutes or less.” Sometimes I want a burrito and cheese fries,…

Try some Creme de Violette. You can generally get a 750ml bottle for $30, but because of its strong flavor it will last you a while. A little splash in a sparkling can turn it something beautiful... and tasty.

My best friend is also a sucker for blue food and especially drink. Fortunately he doesn’t make me join him in it.

White wines from the Nahe region of Germany are traditionally sold in blue bottles.  That could be a thing.

Can we excise the word “authenticity” from food writing? What is authentic? Is something not authentic if they’re third-generation Chinese-American and they eat moo goo gai pan? Is authentic geography-based? Does progress and time dilute authenticity even if it’s cooking done in the heart of Chengdu? It’s such a…

You wouldn’t order a steak and say, “Can I get a side of yams?”

Yes, this assumes that tax on a restaurant meal is the same everywhere. In Minneapolis or Chicago, it is 10.75%%. In Ohio, Kentucky, and Michigan it is 6%*. In most of Oregon, doubling the tax is going to save you a lot of money and you will look cheap since there is no sales or restaurant tax in most of the state*.

Do you really eat that by picking it up and bringing it to your mouth with your hands?

Cleveland has a style of pizza = Cracker thin, square cut.

Michael Symon is mostly known for making picky midwesterners try bone marrow, lol.

There is the little known cleveland style (popularized by greatest cheap pizza chain “Marcos”) which is just cracker thin crust square cut.

Right, but I wasn’t suggesting anyone do that.

In any case, someone who’s been dead and buried for decades certainly isn’t profiting from their work; their estate is, so any debate over whether or not financial support should continue should center around that.

But, yeah, basically, we agree—with one caveat: I’ve always…

They have entirely different textures, flavors, crusts and cheese.

Oh my god. Did employees launch into violent hysterics?

My guess? The person watched Pulp Fiction not too long ago and assumed that everyone gets comfy and chats until ROBBERY!!!
