Food Fight!

Terrence Henry has got a food fight on his hands at Atlantic.com and it's one that we're all familiar with:

"Is Buenos Aires A Great Food City?

That is the question I came here to answer, after all. And it's a hot subject of debate among the expats here, which you can read about on our discussion group, where a thread titled "Food Revolution Bypasses Buenos Aires" is now at 143 posts, with a total of fifteen pages devoted to the topic.

With three months here, and with much exploring and dozens of restaurant visits under our belt, I feel qualified to answer the question definitively. (For myself, at least.)"

The Atlantic has been a lifelong favorite of mine ...and it's been a godsend to get it free on-line for the past two or three years. They have the best food writer in the world too: Corby Kummer! Check it out.

*WARNING: the "discussion" is at baexpats.org ...tail biting being a favorite snack there!

Chicago and NY qualify as great food cities

Don't be shy... Philly can hold it's own any day of the week.

Gotta add Boston as well!

Wow! I just saw that Terrence Henry mentioned in his comments that he is a Yanqui Mike reader.

Quite an honor. I haven't been able to live without the Atlantic Monthly since I was in the USAF.

I almost feel as if I've been "published"!
