Oh, Moro, one more thing, did i see somewhere that you'er in culinary arts schooling?

I know what they teach here in the U.S. but what are they teaching you in Mexico? Do you learn French cuisine, Asian, regional cuisine or is it strictly mexican cuisine. And if your learning about american cuisine, i'd be curious to know what that is like. That is, i'd be curious to see what the rest of the world views as "American cuisine".

But to that point, i guess i'll say that unless you're making a tradiational frnech cuisine, or a traditional japanese cuisine, much of the world has blended it's food. Here in the U.S. people are cookoing with things like asian flare on a traditionally american dish, or an french twist on an american dish. I guess maybe here in the US we're melding and meshing everything. Aw hell, i don't know what the hell i'm trying to say, so forget it!!!

So you're gonna be a chef?
Yes Gale, I am studying culinary arts, preparing meself to be a chef and, if I manage to do it, open up a restaurant with a walk-in wine cellar and humidor. At school I learn everything. EVERYTHING. From how to butcher down a whole beef and skin hares to how to prepare stocks, traditional french, mexican, italian cuisine (amongst several others), up to vanguard techniques as molecular gastronomy. As far as American cuisine goes, I'll say this without intending to offend: U.S. has very little to apport to the culinary world and has more like adopted the traditional cooking from all the foreigners that arrive there, adapting it for their consumption, which is not saying it's bad; it is more like saying that American cuisine per se is basically fast food, Massachussets' seafood, pancakes and the sort. I have a book on only American dishes and drinks (cocktails are as American as a cold dog and a flat beer on a baseball game) and could gladly send ye as much info as ye wish from it.

lol @ Gale. Have you been drinking?
I would not doubt that.

Wow, and I thought the hot topic was the Franks, who knew the Moro/Shmear thread would be the most entertaining of the day. Moro's avatar had me picturing him as an old ass man...shows how intuitive I am.

I'll agree with you, barring one exception: Southern BBQ :blushlove

That, me friend, is Compay Segundo. Bloody neat musician from Cuba. Now me, I'm 20. And a tad sexier. :smokingbo

I love southern BBQ, yet it still applies to me statement: America's got little cuisine to call it's own. Not that it is bad, only that the variety's a tad too few.

She's a tad more shy than I am. But no worries, not too much. I posted her pic and there are some more in her profile.
