And the swine….is unclean to you. Of their flesh you shall not eat. – Leviticus 11 : 7-8
Bullshit. – ELV
SOCIETY Revisited
[imagebrowser id=1765]
Perhaps it wasn’t fair to visit Society the day after we returned from Chi-town. Perhaps it wasn’t fair to maintain such a low opinion of it for the past year or so based on a truly awful experience two Easters ago. Perhaps vetoing it in the last edition of EATING LAS VEGAS – The 50 Essential Restaurants wasn’t fair either.
But whoever told you life was fair?
ELV’s Thought(s) for the Day
Only a stomach that rarely feels hunger scorns common food. – Horace (c. 30 B.C.)
Food snobs are merely people who covet expensive things. Their tastes are influenced by hearsay, not by their own judgment. They do not know that bean curd tastes better than bird’s next , and seaweed, unless it is of the best quality, does not compare with bamboo shoots. – Yuan Mei, The Menu (1797)
