I was glad to see scary girl go, I still can't look at her for too long.
Agreed. Housemate and I think she has gotten less attractive as time has gone on.
However, he stood up for things no one else did, like Jeff's (calling it the stand out when others weren't crazy about it), and I for one was cheering him on.
Yeah, I thought in the end he was quite fair. And saying things for a reason.
Also, Jeff should open a place just for sorbet, his have been such standouts.

Single-dish restaurants are all the rage right now!

I don't disagree with his criticisms, I just think that he's taking the "caustic" thing too far.

Yeah, I'm sure that he serves them a lot in Miami, they must be really refreshing.
So, housemate and I were having a debate last night:
Family style = any time you are sharing dishes (i.e, Chinese food)
or
Family style = where you are all eating from one big dish where the dish is esentially meant to feed everyone (i.e., a big dish of lasagna, Eugene's fish)
Thoughts?
Family style = a big platter of food for multiple people to put on their own plates. Otherwise, you're just sharing your food with someone else.
I think either could be called family style. Sometimes, in a family, you have one big dish (say, lasagne). Sometimes you have multiple dishes (say, roast beef with sides).
Both, I think.
I think any time the restaurant puts the food in the middle of the table it qualifies as "family style."
We used to go to a nice Chinese place up on Second Avenue, Maple Garden I think it was called, and even though everyone would order something, it was all served on a big lazy Susan in the middle of the table, so everyone could share. I like it that way -- it's much nicer than asking for bites off someone else's plate.
What Jessica said - which is why when Jeff said something about Tapas with lots of small dishes I was concerned.
