Christmas, holiday and sleep in. Never like turkey, too big and tasteless. Prefer fried chicken anytime over turkey. Of course, my wife will cook the turkey as usual and I will only eat the thighs until she uses the left over for some other dishes like fried rice, etc.

What brain drain? If they are that good/smart, they wouldn't cause all these in the beginning. Or, perhaps, they are too smart for their own good or good of human kind. If they are that worry, they could always out source, I am sure there are people in another part…

Never read those restaurant guides. I judge it by my mouth. I always like to eat on the street rather than in a restaurant. I have found that some of the foods tastes much better from a street vendor than in a restaurant.
