So what did I ever do to you that you hate me so much to post that picture. You think it's your job to torture me?

Slabbo, I ate 'em outta house and home and got the bum's rush. I'm now testing the fore-
bearance of the Swiss, who are too polite to tell me I'm a gross American. Actually, these
people can do justice to a good table, too. I had to tap out tonight on my Rösti "Zermatt",
but I didn't leave much as I also downed zwei kugel of gelato!
Rösti "Zermatt" = base rösti (more or less hash browns smothered in Gruyere) + bacon,
onions, and eggs! After guiding the little lady up the Breithorn today I figured I earned it!

I think they scraped that off the sidewalk in the Mission.
But sadly this was a meal, in a restaurant. Along with 2 beers we're talking FORTY BUCKS.
Hmmmmm. While you were eating that in a restaurant, I was lunching on this in a restaurant yesterday with my publisher who was in from NYC...
But while restaurant meals are okay up to a point, it's always better at home.

Just had one of the top five meals of my life in Alsace. The joint was too nice to pull out the
iPhoney for proof but, trust me, it was incroyable! I guess I should clarify that as depending
upon whether you are averse to paté and veau. The 2008 Schoenenberg Rieseling was
unbelievable.

The only thing better than pizza and beer is grilled pizza and beer..chicken and roast chilis.

French lunch - hard core food porn!
The Apremont wine has an interesting history:
The village of Apremont, along with its neighbor Abymes, has a rather grisly history that has given rise to the distinctive terroir of the area. A landslide from the Mont Granier mountain to the west swept through the villages in this part of Savoie in the mid-13th Century, killing thousands and leaving a three-mile-long trail of limestone rubble across the valley. While this land remained uncleared for centuries following the event, budding vignerons began to plant vines here in the 18th Century, ostensibly to honor the fallen villages. The name of the village (and cru) is a reference to this devastating landslide: apremont means 'bitter mountain' in French.

You would eat this soup, DMT.One CAN of Teasdale pintos, one medium red onion, and a CAN of LeSeur brand shoepeg corn.
I've made this using caulifowler and boiled-hell-out-of baby carrots, too.
I'm thinking pineapple chunks and maybe some hot diced 'penos might be tasty, as well.
And a large homemade slushie for dessert.
The corn I got from Ernie was delicious and I coulda et three more just like these.
I love the sound of bubbling zupa!

I never spend more than five dollars for a good meal in San Francisco.
Here's one of my go-to joints:
I've had roasted duck on rice and bbq pork chow mein noodles there - comes with soup and hot tea - each for under five bucks.
The only written English in the place is on the sign out front, but the gal who runs the joint will make sure you get something to eat.
I didn't get any pics of the inside because I was the only white guy around there for probably a block or two and I didn't want them to think I was with the health department or anything.
Another good cheap joint is a bakery a couple doors down. Their menu is very limited - you can get either ribs or one other thing I forget - on rice for like $4.50 A whole shoe box stuffed with rice and ribs. More than I can eat. I finished it while stuck in Marin traffic on The 101, spitting rib bones out the window.
I've heard there's good Mexican food in San Francisco too, but I've never tried any because the Chinese food there's exceptionally good. And cheap.

We're talking food porn here.
I can't think of taking anyone else with me to Kam Po Kitchen. It's like going to the adult movie theatre.
