Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
He reasons that an unappetizing sounding item would not be on the menu unless the chef could make something truly exceptional out of it.
I have had this experience, when we finally asked the waiter what to have at a tapas place -- he recommended the fish cheeks, which, really? OMG.
"What you can't cook at home" is why, on those rare occasions my Grandparents went out to eat (with or without their brood of eight), they got Chinese. It was the one thing he couldn't cook.
OMG! I get to go to a medical records office on my lunch hour. SO EXCITED!
Chicken and steak are boring and easy to cook well at home.
This dude has never seen me cook a steak.
OMG! I get to go to a medical records office on my lunch hour.
I am weak with jealousy!
My in-laws always went for Chinese when they went out, too!
Aw, msbelle. You have a hard row to hoe lately.
I am going OUT! on a DATE! tonight with my DH. Going to see Inglourious Basterds. Woo hoo!
My in-laws always went for Chinese when they went out, too!

Myhrvold, who’s writing a book exploring the science and technology of modern cuisine, is working with six chefs, including Chris Young, formerly of the Fat Duck in London, one of Myhrvold’s favorite restaurants.
The restaurant is known for “molecular gastronomy,” manipulating food chemically and physically to create unusual taste combinations. (The current menu includes snail porridge, salmon poached in licorice gel, and mango and Douglas fir purée.) Myhrvold enthusiastically describes it as a “Klingon cafeteria” — a reference to the alien warrior race on “Star Trek.”
The still-untitled cookbook is scheduled to be completed in 2009. Myhrvold is looking for a publisher.

Douglas fir?? What won't these people turn into food? "And for dessert, peppermint bark! Made with REAL BARK!"
Bon, maybe we can do something next week==with my father if you want to meet him, or without, just to break up the pattern.
Whatever you prefer, just give me a ring.
