As to your second point, it appears that I did (inadvertently) take your advice, as I recently got back from a visit to Japan. The food there was indeed excellent (though wine markups were pretty egregious at times), so look out for those posts soon.kevinEatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13874030588556187843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667271330300336985.post-64197020948637460322019-11-30T18:43:39.124-08:002019-11-30T18:43:39.124-08:00Elevated, gut-busting diner food with $15-16 cockt...Elevated, gut-busting diner food with $15-16 cocktails and ridiculous wine markups. The new normal in LA I guess. I say it all the time: you could abstain from several of these meals in LA and use the money towards countless international dining destinations that, to my taste, deliver so much more. Can find flights to Spain for $400-500 and get far superior product, and practically nonexistent wine markups. But hey that's just me. nonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08237168203764640450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8667271330300336985.post-64138654895708572882019-11-29T23:01:50.447-08:002019-11-29T23:01:50.447-08:00This all looks like souless garbage designed to ma...This all looks like souless garbage designed to make you feel good about paying 29 dollars for eggs on toastKChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10899885826084457071noreply@blogger.com
