[quote=Anonymous]So, separating "the best" from "my favorite" is impossible, because on all metrics, there is subjecting ranking of and within the metric. Cuisines I don't really love would never appear on my "best" list and that would eliminate some nice restaurants (eg, Rasika). To me, "best" is some maximization of value - the metric gets really hard for the stratospherically expensive place because if the food is only 10% better, but the price is twice as much, then we've gone negative on the 2nd derivative of the 'value' function. This probably favors the unpretentious like Ben's Chili Bowl. I do miss Citronelle; Vidalia is pretty good but not knock-your-socks off for what it costs. I'd say Montmatre is a little gem - more casual atmosphere, but I've only ever had exceptional service and the food has always been top-notch. [/quote]
