[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing is more cringey than the NYCer banging on about bodega food. I've spent a lot of time in NYC and have never eaten anything particularly good at a bodega or a deli for that matter. And believe me I've been dragged to plenty by locals rhapsodizing about their favorites. I think this is a function of (a) the averages New Yorker's reflexive superiority complex and (b)  people just liking the thing they are used to. The rest of us try it your thing expecting it to live up to your hype and think "eh.v  Its not that the food in DC is not good.  Its that your food back home isnt as good as you think it is. [/quote]
Well-said. I’ve noticed this phenomenon so many times, and it really is incredibly tedious. People are the same way about their Philly cheesesteaks, though Philly people are rarely as obnoxious about food as the type of New Yorker you are describing. [/quote]

I’ve never had a great Cheesesteak in Philly. Not once. We’ve gone to all of the recommended places. It’s a running joke in our family. [/quote]
That isn't Philly's fault you have no taste![/quote]
