Could someone explain the obsession with mediocre food here?
Sunday night a friend suggests we go for Burmese food so we head out to a place called Burma Superstar. It's 7 at night and there are 50 people lined up out front. I've been to Burma and it's not exactly a cuisine you line up for. He suggests another Burmese place around the corner where there are only 25 people out front.
We eat. It's a fine neighbourhood place but hardly worth going out of your way for. Yet the place is filled with wild-eyed Kenny Bania's, "You have to try the tea leaf salad. It's the best, Jerry. The best."
What the ****?
