If you have to add fruit to the beer to make it taste better, it's not a good beer.  You should try another beer.



There is something about Mexican beer that its a lot better with lime. It was served that way in Mexico. So when in Mexico, do what the Mexicans do. Drink beer not water.


Corona is basically devoid of flavor. So some acid from the lime, and especially salt, hit your taste buds pretty hard when you add them, especially if it's ice cold.


What would be the point of drinking beer that is devoid of flavor?

Corona is like making love in a canoe...it's ****ing close to water.

I made chipotle mango chicken with corn on the cob soaked in chile coconut milk overnight then baked in it, with maple chile sweet potatoe.

Crack pie for desert.

One way or the other it looks like it would cost me a lot to leave there hungry. What did you go with?

I wondered but I was afraid to ask. I thought there was a chance you only had that to pick from.

My initial reaction was they could serve me all that and I'd pick at it wishing I had much more of a few things and none of some things.

Status: offline 		It's just a different type of dining experience. Robuchon is one of the top chefs...ever, so it's amazing to be able to try so many things - and in the way he wants you to eat them.

And they're all such powerful dishes, that any more than a few bites of each may be too much of a good thing.

Basically. A bunch of small and very fancy plates. Like this:

I feel that way with deserts. I'm still vibrating from the crack pie.

But I think I could choose one awesome thing and go to town on it.

Not sure that thing is on that list though. I'd certainly be game for tring something like that though.

That's one of the things I like about tapas or dim sum restaurants. You can try a couple of everything and not feel like a pig. The progressive bill can be hard to keep up with, though.

Is this from the Las Vegas Restaurant? I believe there are eight around the world. My wife and I were planning on eating there this spring in Vegas.
