| hmm. > I love California, but they don't know anything about food. i really wonder how you can say this with a straight face. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... one ramen restaurant, across the state line. "You mean ramen doesn't always come in plastic bags?" http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... one pho restaurant, in another city. "ewww what is this stuff in my soup" http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=sashimi&find_loc=ch... one omakase sushi bar. better learn to love rainbow rolls and sweet sauce. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat...
http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=szechuan&find_loc=c... not a single decent chinese restaurant, not surprising. hope you like sweet and sour chicken and chop suey (lol) http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... one carne asada joint, in another city. there's 3 mexican joints worth going to in the whole area. 'tacqueria' brings no results. looks like there's a local mini-chain 'mojo burrito' which is 'heads and shoulders above qdoba'... well that's a start. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... one peruvian restaurant, down the highway. seems like a decent place though. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=indian&find_loc=cha... FOUR whole indian places. i think we're getting warmer (pun intended...) http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... lots of thai, we must be on to something here... spicy food, right? http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=caribbean&find_loc=... NOPE no jerk chicken to be found anywhere. and you call yourself spice lovers... sigh. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=ramen&find_loc=chat... well, if you move there, i hope you like southern food. cause that's pretty much what you're gonna be eating. it's very difficult for me to not interpret "California doesn't know anything about food" as "People with other points of view don't know anything about the things we like the most here." "hard to find quality bbq in SF or LA" or "we have great southern food" or even "californians can't handle real spice" would have flown a lot better. |
I think your comment pretty much sums up the California viewpoint, "Someone in Chattanooga said something, now I feel like I can classify everyone there".
