"I could eat there another two weeks and not get tired of eating," he says. "When I say taco, it's okay. This is the best." The food in Mexico City makes him feel like Tokyo or Japan, where a long culinary history has been passed down. He thinks Mexico City now is in the top five eating cities.
Dave recounts all the amazing things he ate in Mexico City, including one of the best last courses he’s ever eaten at Pujol and the timeless excellence of Contramar. Then Dave and Chris introduce a couple of new segments, "Theoretical Dinner Party," in which they draft aging rock stars to eat dinner with, and "Culinary Arbitrage," in which they dissect the value of live shellfish and New York City sushi. Other topics include white lying to your friends, the importance of colonoscopies, ice baths in the morning, the benefits of routine, and spot prawns vs. lobster.
