Poor one out for all the hungover soldiers. It's all your fault, but I still support you.

I like cucumber but not seafood...i feel like cheese would already be too strong to pair with fish let alone gorgonzola...You'd think even 'upper class ppl' might've heard of pocari or at least the waiter. tho someone in her line of work might need to keep some nausea/stomach pills on them at all time

yay glasses guy

It's a concept in Western fine dining cuisine that cheese and fish don't go together to the point where it's generally stated as a matter of course, but the Filet-O-Fish at McDonald's is super popular.

The concept of not pairing certain ingredients together is based off the logic of "I've never eaten these together, that's weird so I won't do it..." in other words it's lack of adventurous spirit! Eat random things together either regret or rejoice your choices after! At some point you get a feel for what sort of unlikely foods actually pair well with each other.

I'm looking forward to when the side casts meet each other and the eating and drinking gets upped a notch. 😆

I agree with the spirit, and I myself have tried some unholy pairings, but white fish with Gorgonzola is plainly deranged

well i don't like seafood to begin with but i get how some ppl can enjoy the combo, might depend on the strength level tho since some cheeses are stronger than others but if it is a cheap diner bar/izakaya at least it won't be overpriced lol

i've had maple bacon donuts, not rly into sweet and meat versus spicy and sweet, it was tolerable but i'd only eat it when my brother buys it versus going outta my way to order it myself

I mean, free food is the best food.

I'm not against paying if i like it (tho other than ice cream places i imagine most places don't give free samples, maybe for a sauce or so lol), but yeah it'd be nice to get it free the first time and then pay next time if i like it

If I'm trying something new, I usually wait until it's heavily discounted to buy it if I can't get it for free. I'm not willing to spend loads of money on something I might really not like; I just bought mint jelly yesterday that is normally $6.99 was marked down to $1.22; I didn't like it, and if I had paid full price for it, I'd probably try to force myself to eat the whole thing.

LOL yeah, tho i have been to a new place when it's opened up the first week or so but i stick to stuff i'm familiar with like rice and fries (a middle eastern place i went to was alright tho i asked for the sauces on the side, i guess i like tahini sauce but it was good that i got it in a separate container b/c they gave me like twice as much as i would've used myself anyways. and it was cold/would've preferred room temp or heated up but i imagine they have to keep it refrigerated for sanitary reasons but i usually walk home anyways so i can pour it out and reheat it myself lol) but if you're still in contact with some good friends it's a good excuse to meet up and split the bill or if the other person's generous lol

But yeah other than like supermarket samples it'd be nice if some restaurants gave you free samples other than ice cream shops but depending on how demanding some ppl are i can understand it being unreasonable (tho surprisingly one smoothie place where i ordered something that happened to have alcohol in it they did give me a sample, it was also good tho i ordered it more for the fruit than it being a cocktail)
