That depends ... I wasn't impressed with that place we ate at in SD
(though it was more Cuban than anything). We both enjoyed the Samba
Grille in Vegas, and there was a place in Oklahoma I liked called Bahama
Breeze that was Caribbean -- though I think they dumbed the spices down
for the masses there. They also went out of business not too long after
opening.
What about the recipes do you think I wouldn't like? If they involved
fennel or anise, you are probably right. Plus, if they are high in fat,
etc., I might not want to eat them -- though I probably would enjoy them.
Let's face it, I've become a lot more adventurous with my food choices
thanks to you! But I think I will pass on the Ethiopian fare next time. ;-)
