Some of the most interesting places right now aren't really fancy: Toups Meatery, Cochon and Cochon Butcher, Primitivo.....

Make sure to save money for a Wendy's burger after you spend 40 bucks an entree and only get four or five bites worth


Are people still perpetuating this myth? Sure if you are like some work out fiend who punishes whey protein and eats 4000 calories a day then yes, yes it will not be enough food. But for the average person "fancy" restaurants do a great job of spacing out courses to where you *gasp* get full off of a normal amount of food.

Please fill me in on the interesting aspect of Primitivo. I look at the menu and just don't see it. Plus, most of the menu just doesn't make sense during the summer.

Don't waste your time with this guy. Nothing worse than a guy that is passionate about his ignorance. He's too cheap or poor to understand the concept of fine dining.

What's most classic about your post is you recommended Wendy's. Even your taste in fast food sucks.

Not really. Just find your statements about food comical.

It's the the poster child terminology for food snobs. "Molecular gastronomy" instead of just saying "different food techniques". The latter is even fewer syllables.
No offense intended, of course.
