“How does one abuse food?”

You’ve got me thinking of a Goan sea bass curry I had at Bread Bar once… yummmmmm

I think curry is kind of like wine or beer – just because you’ve had a lot of bad ones, doesn’t mean there isn’t a good one out there that you might like.

Curry gets a bad rap, because everyone assumes it’s that same, typical, orange-red sauce they cook everything in at a restaurant. It’s not! “Curry” is a generic Indian term for 90% of our food that has been sorely abused. :(

You had me at

“Anything fried with sauce and cheese, and Mexican food”

But cha lost me at

“Least Favorite Kind of Food: Curry anything”

But then you won me over again with the fresh fish and seaside work place ideal. See I’m not mean like Rudy :-P

Bistro is nasty. All their food has a glaze too it. Even the salad.

If the purpose of the weekly profile is simply to introduce readers to new Midtown Lunchers, then Carolyn has done a fine job.

However, I think most of us look to the profiles as a source of information for new places that we haven’t heard about, and that Zach hasn’t covered. In that sense, this profile is lacking.

I hope I’m not considered a “wolf” for saying so.
