When I want to relax, I read an essay by Engels. When I want something more serious, I read Corto Maltese.

There's a new Bangladeshi place in town that does grilled curried mackerel as a specialty and it's absolutely delicious.

Mackerel used to be my fallback poverty food when I worked retail in my 20s. I would ride my bicycle down to the local lighthouse with my cheap rear end combo rod, and cast out a string of feathered hooks, it would only usually take 5 or 6 casts to get dinner. If you were too slow on the retrieve you would get Pollock (flakey but bland) and if you reeled in too quick you would get needlefish (delicious but fiddly).

I used to gut them and stuff them with onion/tomato/butter/paprika/seasoning and then wrap them up tight in foil and bake until flakey.

I used to frequent a little Egyptian/sudanese place that did grilled fish, salad and peanut sauce in pita bread. It was amazing stuff.

Sounds almost like tarator sauce, but with peanuts instead of walnuts. D'you remember what fish they were using?

Nope but it was a fairly generic white fish, probably whatever was cheap. The peanut sauce was a little bit creamy and very tasty without being too heavy.

I remember going to a place, it might have been called Portillos? when we visited Chicago for a wedding. They did an Italian beef sub with 4 levels of gravy, up to and including taking the sandwich in tongs and fully submerging it in the gravy before wrapping. That seemed too far.

They also put an entire slice of heavy chocolate cake into a chocolate thickshake. Wildly decadent place.

I used to work at a sub place (not subways) and I remember there were a lot of presumably vegetarian people who would come in and order sandwiches with basically every vegetable topping on it plus some sauces and the result was always just a big hunk of wet between the bread. It must have tasted pretty good, but sometimes people would go one step further and order this in a lettuce wrap instead of a sandwich, so I'd have to go to our heads of lettuce and take the biggest leaves I could to layer to try and contain a selection of, like, sauerkraut, lettuce, tomato, avocado, pickles, and pickled peppers, topped with mayo and vinegar. And if any of this broke in people's hands because they'd not considered the structural integrity of their lettuce wrap and maybe they should pad it out with a black bean patty, I'd get yelled at.

I no longer work there.

Eh that’s just a shortcut either eggs and oil already cooked and emulsified.

But Portillo’s sucks since they were bought out by private equity.

Dipped isn’t even the wettest, try Baptized.

I love the effort of creating a delicate patterned fish plate and then just punching an onion and ripping off a chunk of bread heel to pair with it. Although I guess this is a "I don't even own a knife" kind of meal

Yeah, that'd be Portillo's. A fully dipped Italian beef is actually super amazing. I'm much more dubious about the Gloop Sandwich With Fritos above.

What kind of fish is that? At first glance before the video fully loaded I thought they were krill or something, but they look semi transparent.

I returned to Switzerland 37-years after I lived there. I was pleasantly shocked at the proliferation of doner kebab shops.

Switzerland's very insular; kind of like Japan. When we lived there in the '70s they had a ballot referendum to throw all of the foreigners (including us) out. It failed, but not by much. My parents were dismayed as we had moved there only the year before, and the pain of an international house move hadn't worn off yet.
