First one was on pizza and I noticed with great interest a chap in Naples showing how to eat a pizza properly, with your hands. :nod:
Note to Charles, don't watch. The whole point of the series is that food can be, and is, wonderful everywhere in the world regardless of origin.
Oh, and second one is on tacos and I defy anyone to watch it and not want to go to Mexico to eat Mexican food.
Yum. :eat:
Make your mind up, your first post says food can be wonderful anywhere and then you say the second one will make you want to go to Mexico.... food is not the reason why I would want to go on holiday anywhereQuote:

It was a vegan burger....
How can you eat pizza if you're a vegan? What of God's honest Mozzarella?Quote:

Can you guess?
You aren't going to say 'The Wall' are you? :-(Quote:

You could, yes. And the Mexican food might be very good if the produce was of a high quality and the chef knew how to cook it.Quote:

Obviously that is a matter of opinion. However, it certainly wouldn't work any better as a single album :)Quote:

I always though they were not quite pretentious enough most of the time. Actually sitting down. And listening to Quadrophenia as an album (not the soundtrack) I realised it is different to most of their stuff. It really works.Quote:
