British food is horrid. I like to drink at British pubs, but I learned not to eat in them . I had this one meal that had lamb in it. I never tasted anything worse.

Bah. Come over here for home cooked traditional food such as a joint of roast beef with all the trimmings and then say that.

Though in my family, traditional sunday food also includes Nasi Goerng and pilaf. hmm....I'm drunk.

But it's good food. I love enchiladas.

And what's the difference between tex-mex, mexican, and now I hear cali-mex?



No real cuisine is inherently gourmet- and you can turn any cuisine into gourmet cooking- heck, if you can have American gourmet, you can have Mexican gourmet.

After all, alol those chillies that now grace Indian food come from Mexico.

we have Indian fast food here in Las Vegas. It's probably cheaper to visit here (though maybe not after gambling and whores ).

We also have Hawaiin fast food. Does anyone eat Hawaiin food? Some of it's pretty good. Some of it now so good. But I enjoyed most of it.

I have a nice Indian restaurant 2 blocks from my apartment. You can get good, authentic Indian food for cheap in NYC. I like it.

I must have some Mexican food occasionally, if only for the cilantro. Cilantro is a god among herbs.

I'm reliably informed some Europeans have even been on aeroplanes, and to a faraway magical place called Mexico.....

Funny MRT, I have been contemplating a similar venture as my retirement job. "Mexican" food rules. I include in that definition both the American regional and Mexican regional variations. Tex-Mex, Southwest and Cali-Mex vary quite a bit from one another as well as from the huge variety of food in Mexico proper.

Well then, from that huge amount of experience you are clearly well-qualified to pass judgment on the many different aspects of modern British cuisine.

I may as well pronounce judgment on the whole of U.S. cuisine based on my unsavoury encounter with a tuna fish sandwich swimming in mayonnaise in a cafe in Taft.

It was the only thing on the menu that appeared not be cooked, enrobed, slathered or smothered in oil or lard.

How wrong I was.

Although this is true insofar as it pertains to the morning after chili rush, it isn't entirely accurate, as it
depends on what you're eating, and from which Indian cuisine.


Rotis and chapattis don't take long, and kebabs can be cooked fairly quickly.

I think I gathered that.

I just added a little bit for those unused to Indian cuisine or Indian fast food- oddly there are still some around.

Of course, I have had really good meals at many restaurants in and around London. Things have changed quite a bit in the last 20 years.
