I WAS hungry, but that made me want to vomit. And not just a little and not in my mouth. What did that meal cost you, anyway? I mean besides any ounce of dignity and credibility you might have ever had?

I know his last name, Mandracchia, must be a little hard for you to wrap your lips around, Corine, but couldn't you have at least tried?

Speaking of lack of dignity, that poor poached dead baby octopus perched atop a martini glass. I bet that shot alone will be the reason some viewers become instant vegetarians.

Sueleen, you have tamed down so.

Could you actually see the octopus? The lighting was so bad I thought there had been a black out.

Positively sweet now.

Like maple sugar.

OMG. that's hilarious. you should post it on youtube.

I hate octopus, but that little baby thing is nothing compared to what you see displayed in the windows of many restaurants in Galicia. Actually, there were a few dishes in that video that sounded pretty good to me including the vegetable plate with lobster-stuffed artichoke and the tuna. And those cucumber things with the sushi-style fish. Some of the other stuff I wouldn't like, but I've seen much worse fare offered at trendy expensive restaurants. This wasn't so bad.

On our honeymoon, my wife had cuttlefish - in its own ink. YUCK

Would never go near any of this stuff

How did you get to do that, Corine?

I have seen more appetizing dinners on Fear Factor.

The only thing I saw that was somewhat icky was the octopus. Possibly the fish because it still had the tail, but that is common in Europe (where it usually has the head attached as well). Everything else looked fine and didn't seem to have anything grotesque about it. Shrimp with sugar cane, crabcakes, marinated Ahi tuna. Nothing remotely Fear Factor-ish about that.

In Santiago de Compostela, I tried the Monkfish. I truly repulsive looking thing that tasted heavenly.

Perhaps it was the company?

FYI PB,
The food was not gross. It was outstanding.
The Tuna Loin was by far the best thing I have eaten this year.
The Crab Cakes exceptional and the shrimp over the sugar cane was divine.
I don't like Octopus, so I did not try it, but the camera man loved it. His favorite was the lobster with spring veggies.
I LOVED THE TUNA LOIN. Yum.

I thought most of the dishes he was describing and showing were extremely unappetizing looking. But I'm glad you enjoyed them. This is not a menu I would put before my family or friends.

To each his own, Corine. Thanks for replying.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The Trump Grill serves dishes the way the Donald loves his women: stacked precariously and gaudy as all get out.

I loved when the chef said the one dish tasted better the less you do to it. Of course he rivaled Jackson Pollock with all the stuff he drizzled and confettied on the plate.

He was hot though. I would totally do him.

Namo,
Sorry, he is married with kids and very nice.
If he were single I would fight you for him.

Like married men with children who are very nice never have gay sex.

Many of my partners have revealed themselves to be married with children AFTER they've used me for their pleasure. Why, I never. Never, ever.

I thought the lobster and spring veggies looked ridiculous. The lobster itself looked good, but the whole carrots, beets, leeks, turnips, etc. were HUGE. There is just no graceful way to eat big whole veggies.

And Trump Tower is the #2 attraction in NYC? I have never heard ANYone say, "Hey, let's go to NY so we can see Trump Tower!" I do, however, have friends in video production that could help with that video.
