PFSIKH Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Nah, I didn't go anywhere. France never surrendered to me, but quite a few of their restaurants have. I was driving the back roads to Nashville a week or so ago and saw a restaurant that advertised "authentic French cuisine". If it was in Nashville, I would take a chance, but a $hithole little town north of Nashville? I think I will pass. Probably French Bread Pizza.

As you go west from Torino through Nice the bread gets progressively better and the people snootier. From Nice on it is on. We figured they hated Americans and pretended to be Italian, but apparently they are not that fond of Italians either. Italian food is great, but Milan is probably the worst and the bread in France is phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had good food in our limited travels through France (Paris, Metz and St. Avold). Cannot say I ever had a bad meal eating out in Europe.

Cannot say I ever had a bad meal eating out in Europe. The only place I ever had "bad" food was Venice. The first 3 times we went, McDonald's was the best meal we had. That was because somebody would invariably get hungry down by St Mark's and somebody else would refuse to pay for a decent meal (€8 for an espresso over there in 2006, .80 the rest of the country). Once we actually had pizza that had been microwaved. The barrage of profanity I let loose with is still talked about by those within earshot. The kid who was "so hungry that I will die if we take another step" has often heard that his death was preferable. Venice actually has some insanely good food, but not at the tourist traps.

Mmmmmm pizza. Never had microwaved pizza. Worse meal I had and it was on an Air Force base so I do not think it should count. I ordered a French Pizza Croissant. It ended up being a Stouffers French Bread Pizza slice. FML. You've never eaten at a Supermac's in Ireland, then. Do they have a Supermac's in the airport?

Panzer Division Marduk Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Thankfully no. Just imagine if there was? Thousands of people, starving after long flights, putting up with crap food on airplanes (I'm looking at YOU, American Airlines), get into Dublin, want something quick, and all there is is Supermac's. Horrific thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Division Marduk Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Since 99% of this place ignore this thread, might get away with this here. The Redskins losing the trademark protection case means that anyone can sell anything using their name now, and Snyder has no comeback. What are the chances those fake jersey companies in China are now hiring lawyers to find every team's name offensive in some way? That would be the NFL's nightmare scenario. Be fun to watch, though.
