No arguments with 1, 12, 14 and 36 mind. Charles, no doubt, would tell you they are all perfect.

It's hard to take such lists seriously, since it is impossible to avoid the suspicion that the answers are motivated as much by a desire to signal one's level of sophistication as by the food itself.

The number one answer is a classic example of this. It is motivated entirely by a desire to distinguish Pinxtos from tapas and demonstrate that the person giving the answer knows the difference. Of course, the fact is that Pinxtos are almost infinitely variable and thus to claim that they are all a great food experience is deeply silly - some of them may well be utterly minging. Equally, 'cheese in France'? What? Which cheese? Where in France?
But that's not the point. The real point is for the respondent to show what a colossal bell-end they are and thus garner bell-end points from their fellow bell-ends.
