This blog is essentially to record and recommend ( or otherwise ! ) a range of dining experiences from around the world. Fine dining from Tetsuyas in Sydney or Gordon Ramsey in London, all the way to a hot dog at Dodger Stadium or a Pigs knuckle in Frankfurt.
I'll start with a little rant about Krispy Kreme donuts. It doesn't matter where these are from because they are all the same. That can be a blessing and a disaster.
I consider myself a bit of a donut connoisseur, as they are one of my favourite foods, so you can trust me when I say Krispys are overpriced, oversugared, fatty, tasteless pieces of fluff. Mr Kreme has very successfully hyped this frenzy of desire for their product. Unfortunately it does not live up to the expectation. Most suburban bakers and shopping mall donut franchises will serve you a far tastier, doughy delight for half the price. Food 3 Service 5 Atmosphere 2
Wish I could remember more to tell you about last nights Mexican in Downtown LA. Because it was GOOD. But after 6 Dos Equis ( is that 12? ) and a pitcher of frozen Margharitas, it's all a bit of a blur. Cant quite remember where it was, but it was cheap and tasty and friendly. Food 7 Service 8 Atmosphere 7. Will find and post the name at a later date.
Dropped into the Library Bar on the way home for a few - but stomach so full I just felt like a bloated piglet. Not the fault of the Mexican food, just my own tendency to taste everything on offer.

I wonder if you could open this up so that other places can be reviewed. I had a great rendang the other day, cheap too! The chef had apparently made it from scratch. Not a very modest guy, and I don't know about his hygiene standards, but that's why curries were developed, no?
The other options (alphagetti or baked beans on toast) were a little less appealing, fortunately there was piles of rendang, an elegant sufficiency, whoever rejected that was a silly man. Homely atmosphere, very comfortable, places for kids to play. Food 8 service 7 atmosphere 8.
