That episode with Amy Annette, was it? that was talking about that obscene American 'salad' with marshmallows and mayonnaise and tinned pineapple, etc, is called Ambrosia salad. Truly, possibly, the most revolting American food ever produced, which is a huge claim, I know. I can't be bothered to look for the episode. I just have to register my disgust. And in the same meal, steak tartare- I would just leave. I could not cope with those being eaten at my table. I would need a bucket - and nobody"s conversation is worth that. Ambrosia salad is just THE line where Americans have lost the right to eat at the table with the grown ups.
A place in New York called “Rice to Riches” would change a person’s mind about rice pudding. Interesting place with a rich history of accusations about financial shenanigans. Great puddings though. A whole shop in NYC that only sells rice pudding.
Nothing wrong with it really but because it's meant to be your ultimate meal James thinks it's a waste to choose as your perfect pudding, so it annoyed him.
Loved it. I have to live vicariously, because the version of this story where it's an American woman inadvertently revealing her hotel location to thousands of strangers is way darker.
