Rice is one of the most important foods in the world. I'm not sure you understand it's significance.
- _hardwaregeek 8y agoSure, and bread is the most important food in western society, but if a French food critic's favorite dish was a baguette with jam, I'd question their judgement a little.
- staticautomatic 8y agoYou underestimate how important bread still is in French cuisine. I was just in Paris and complained to the concierge at our high end hotel about a bad restaurant recommendation. He said he didn't need to hear anymore about how bad the meal was after I said the bread was bad (and stale). In other simple French food news, Joel Robouchon is known for saying his last meal would be a good potato with good butter.
- _hardwaregeek 8y agoAnd rice is profoundly important in Chinese culture :D. But just because a restaurant has good bread/rice doesn't mean it's good. Good bread/rice is the baseline, not the goal.
- dgzl 8y agoFrom what I understand, rice is the most important ingredient to sushi as well. (More so than the fish)
- jvzr 8y agoI was just thinking, "what's wrong with that?". I'm French, though.
