We'll have to remedy this lack of currywurst situation. It's so bad that it's good - a bratwurst, cut into pieces, smothered in a ketchup-like, tomato-ish sauch with curry powder in it. I say ketchup-like and tomato-ish because I'm still not really sure what the hell is in that sauce.
Ew. Can I have that and haggis on the same day, then spend the next day at the Michelin winner and wash the three-course meal down with venerable scotch? Because otherwise...ergh. And I realize that someone who has eaten NYC hot dogs can't really throw stones, but still. Consider that one chucked.
Pho soup! Best dish ever invented by humans, anywhere. On my desert island, wish list item #1, could live upon for many decades. But I can't make it at home for some reason.
You've had all this, but never had clam chowder in a sourdough bowl? I think I've had that by *accident.* Hee.
And now, I feel a meme coming on myself...
I've found soup in a bread bowl better as a concept than as a fact. This too, IMO, could've been set aside for worthy weirdnesses like the aforementioned fried candy bar.
Mm, meeeeemes.
