Everything's better in CA.


I thought this was just a NY thing. Can’t count how many New Yorkers I’ve met that despise the food in DC. As they frequently say, “it’s always better back home.” I in turn always think, but don’t say “then what are you doing here if it’s so bad.”

I have been to NY plenty of times. It’s just like DC, or any major city- lots of really good food and a lot of pretty pedestrian fare. For New Yorkers, they commonly complain about pizza. It’s 2024, the secret on pizza has been out for years. It’s not hard to find a good pie in most of the U.S.


The CA thing is the produce. Could also be the air, depending on where you are, but the produce is just better there.

Bangkok 54 has the most authentic prepared foods in the area in their super market. Their little cafe has legit soups too to eat a quick lunch.
