sounds good but the idea is far from being original since in 2001 Anthony Bourdain wrote “A Cook’s tour, in search of the perfect meal”

One of the best meals I had recently was at a place in the basement of an ancient office building in the old Santa Fe Trail town of Trinidad, Colorado. Just an ordinary restaurant . . . . and some of the best red enchiladas I’ve ever had!

This book sounds interesting. I haven’t been taking time to read lately and find that I don’t know what to start with when I get the urge. Finding reviews at some of my regular spots certainly helps.

One of the best meals I’ve ever had was in Kyoto on a miserably cold, damp day in February. I had a steaming bowl of soba with a raw egg cracked into it and a jam jar of hot sake, which I think it cost the equivalent of 6 bucks. I remember it vividly and fondly over 20 years later. On the other hand, another one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten was the (pretty darned expensive) set menu meal at Rover’s in Seattle, but I think that was not just because the food was exquisite, but because I took the person responsible for my being a foodie with me – my favorite Aunt.
