D. Food

I just got back from a very quick trip to Mexico City for purposes of research (and R & R). It was awesome, of course. Particularly memorable meals at El Bajio (traditional Mexican) and Contramar (seafood), and Biko (Basque traditional or modern, you pick) was out of this world. Lots of delicious street, cantina and market food, of course, and many foods that are novelties to the US palate. I’d eaten brains, black fungus, and snails before, but never all on the same day.

Of course, I saw Linkery alumna Mars, who is doing great and gives her best to everyone. She’s manning the range at pastabox weekdays for lunch, if you’d like to visit her. The pasta is ******* delicious (as we used to say in the old days).
