that was a great show.
i wish he would have gone to that other guy here who has a restaurant in La Paz, Jesse!!

i have dived for clams all over the SOC and it is way fun to eat them on the boat.

looking forward to some tongue soon.:lol::lol::light:
the balls were the bomb.
eyes i haven't done but brains are great.
bone marrow...i dunno...
cooked blood - forget it...
i missed it in 2007 sure glad they ran it again.

Tony Boirdain is the top guy tho. all class. his book is an excellent read.

I wonder if Jesse knows the owner of Buffalo BBQ?

I've done eyes...mixed with brain. Never again.

Bone marrow? C'mon Mike, you love it. Doncha remember eating pork chops when you were a kid? The half-dollar size piece of cooked marrow in the center of the bone? That was the best part. Not exactly Osso Bucco, but really good.

Happen to see the show before I read this thread. It was fine until....well...I've heard of keeping your eye on the ball, but that was too much for me.

I'll try anything once. I've never said "I don't like it" before I've tried it and I've even surpised myself at what I like. It all looked pretty delicous to me. Can't wait to get down to La Paz and go dive for chocolate clams. My mouth was drooling through the whole show. I'm going to T.J. thursday, think I'll try to find that La Difference resturant for lunch. Then over to the local market for carnitas and dinner. :o :tumble:

OK....Give them YUMMY eyeballs a try. Out of a cow, they're about the size of a tennis ball and more slimey than okra. You might really like them. :lol::lol::lol:

"The huitlacoche crepes had me swooning!"

Huitlacoche is right up there among the best foods one can find on a Mexican menu. Sadly, it's not all that easy to find.

The huitlacoche crepe/thingy he was serving is on my 1001 foods to eat before I die. I bet the huitlacoche was shipped up from mainland Mexico.

When I lived in Oaxaca I saw it in the mercado de abastos often, usually in the summer. It rained every day in the late afternoon, and that is what it takes to grow the must on the corn. There is a boutique farmer guy here in Oregon who is attempting to make it happen.......I'm on the lookout! :dudette:
