I love to eat but, to me food is situational. What I love to eat at all ball park or pizza shop is something I probably wouldn't even consider in a 5 Star restaurant. Likewise there are items on that high end restaurant menu I would never consider (even if available) at a ball park or pizza shop. I agree with the article author's opinion about food being over hyped and over analyzed and some how tied into "fashion" by everyone with a lap top and some free time. In Philadelphia I am fortunate to be able to sit down at a great (even celebrity) restaurant where the meal is best described as fucking amazing. You walk out happy and satisfied but in a small amount of debt from the $300.00 tab. The next day I could hit the food truck taco stand outside University of Pennsylvania, pay $7.00 for a great lunch and have the same satisfaction. I suppose the bottom line is good food, prepared properly but someone who knows what they're doing is always going to be a hit.

Fine china, but where is the parsley sprigs, the radish roses, the gravy sprinkled artsy stuff? Poor, poor hounds.  
Remember that well presented grub can be like a well presented woman. Both can give you heartburn and burn your ass when they leave you.

What? J/K messing with Joker. I got the pic off the internet. Besides, I feed my dog illegal aliens, would not make a nice picture.

Went from well presented fine dining right to dog food. Poor Penn is pulling his hair out and beating his head with a pan.
