Blendtecs are the best blenders out there along with VitaMix. If you do not own a blender and you are going to be using it daily, do not get any other blender than one of those. |

chateaubriand is the nuts, had the best chateaubriand when i was in basel, switzerland
+ Show Spoiler +
The Chateaubriand steak is a recipe of a particular thick cut from the tenderloin, which, according to Larousse Gastronomique, was created by personal chef, Montmireil, for Vicomte François-René de Chateaubriand, (1768–1848), the author and diplomat who served Napoleon as an ambassador and Louis XVIII as Secretary of State for two years. This dish is usually only offered as a serving for two, as there is only enough meat in the center of the average fillet for two portions.
At the time of the Vicomte, the steak was cut from the more flavorful but less tender sirloin and served with a reduced sauce made from white wine and shallots moistened with demi-glace and mixed with butter, tarragon, and lemon juice. An alternative spelling of the statesman-author's name is 'Châteaubriant', and some maintain that the term refers to the quality of the cattle bred around the town of Châteaubriant in the Loire-Atlantique, France.

korean bbq - pic taken from a restaurant in chicago
*** Edit: Whilst eating at this korean restaurant, I observed that the koreans were very unfriendly towards their guests (didnt matter if their guests were asian or caucasian). Is this common?

arent koreans and asians in general "overpolite" compared to westerners? |

| quite the opposite. in all the time i spent in macau and korea, i noticed that both cultures were FAR less concerned with general politeness and customer service than we are here in america. sometimes it rubbed me the wrong way but mostly i just looked around and everyone seemed to just not care about polite bs and it worked pretty well for them
in american restaurants, the servers are extremely knowledgeable and polite and try very hard to go out of their way to ask you if you need anything, tell you the specials, etc
in macau the chinese girls just stare at you until you say something and then they write it down. if you need more water they don't care. |

i think its about most eastern collectivistc cultures.
by the way i don't think how they treat you in a restaurant is the only measure here. in general i think they are more polite, at least from my experience.

the same was true:
at the real estate office
in the casinos
at the airport
at the ferry station
at the supermarket
at 7-11
at the telecom center
at the barber
and so on
i used restaurants as an example but it was the same everywhere |
