reading food message boards from the early 2000s is the greatest time travel into true food joy ever
-
so fancy. i was only reading message boards, not eating out, at that time!
I was lucky a combination of personal and business travel allowed me to try these places. I would cut other expenses so that I could put it into one of these fancy meals. Some didn't work out, but good places like Petrus in the UK made it right and for the most part all good.
