I hear white people are trying to sing the blues too. When Muddy Waters was asked whether they could, he supposedly said, "Sure why not, I have a dog that can bark the blues."

if your recipe looks simultaneously like excrement AND genitalia then...
plus the broccoli isn't overcooked enough for that era!

is there an opportunity to revitalize cream-of-whatsit soup & frankfurt casseroles for cosmopolitan yelpers? maybe a charmingly kitschy bistro called "haute dish" or something?

there are those kinda faux diner places that have apple brown betty and tuna casserole "with a modern twist". but nothing as extreme as frankfurter spectacular.

all the new american places have those kinda throwback/futuristic dishes. i love a fancy mac & cheese. there is some great cheese out there!
there's also a place called "cafeteria" that i am fairly sure serves everything in plastic trays with the multiple compartments. never been there. it's always busy.

inevitable last frontier will be the place called Le Dumpster. foodie diving behind supermarkets will be the ultimate in locavore sustainability. still think the new yorker article on the "fad" of "foraging" signals endtimes. you can get FOOD right out of the GROUND! who knew?

maybe it's cause I grew up on ground beef casseroles bound w/cream of mushroom soup & mayonnaise, but beyond the LOLs those frankfurter dishes don't strike me as more outlandish and/or indigestible than some of the stuff I read about in high-end restaurant reviews

Data point: the hipster Russian dumpling shop here went out of business. Pelmeni were the only menu item and the in-house music was provided by LPs played on a fetishistically displayed wood-cabinet record player. I miss it, actually.

Just trying to say that this kind of food is not somehow far away in time or space; people around this great nation are eating tater tot casserole as we speak. They sell it in the grocery store prepared-food case here right next to the eel sushi and roasted beet salad.

I don't have a horse in the 'authenticity' race, but I do think pan-Asian places are frequently pretty bad. I think they cast too wide a net, as in "we're going to cook you region-specific food, from a region comprised of more than half of the earth's population and containing every conceivable biome and ingredient and also there will be probably be ginger"

Note: I love food carts to death, I live about 50 feet from a great lot of them.
I also live in a city also infused with folks convinced they can out-clever and out sub-niche each other, and food carts is a battlefield they have chosen. to paraphrase a local alt-weekly, if they spent as much energy into having regular or even stable opening hours as they did coming up with a gimmick and punny name, not nearly as many of them would fail.
Thus my putrid preciousness comment.

At a certain point, food isn’t an ethnic thing, it’s a class thing.
