Hard to go wrong with veggie fried rice. :D
Depends on the veggies. :)
Strewth. My point was more that most veggies didn't start out life with tentacles and blastocysts. (I'm not too much of a squeamish goon; I'll try most things once. Tentacles don't bother me, but I draw the line at shellfish, because when their cousins show up on land, a la order Blattodea, I tend to stomp them flat.)
I have food allergies, that's part of my pickiness. The rest is, well, just pickiness.
The pickiness is an entitlement. The food allergy thing is a bit more dire. My stepfather's got a severe gluten allergy, and has to be painfully careful about restaurants. It's that or anaphylaxis.
Besides, I've been rather partial to meat (at least the meat I can eat) for the past couple of years....
The glib part of me wants to make a comment about unbeatable meat, but it's just not quite jelling. Oh well. I guess fortune's smiling on many this night.
Does the restaurant have a buffet?
