I love Cuban food.  The first time I ate Cuban food was in a strip mall in Goose Creek, SC just outside Charleston …no kidding.  With a strong military influence in the area before the shut down of the military base and the naval yard, international influence on food was pretty common.  The best Cuban food I ever tasted was in Miami and is responsible for my love affair with plaintains.  This next Call offers you an opportunity to sample some of the best food in the world during your time at this opening…

I love salt water taffy.  I love the taste and the colors and the main street feel of the shops that allow you to look on as the taffy is hand-crafted.  Funny enough, most of the towns that conjure images of salt water taffy for me are no where near the coast.  Odd.  I wonder if the town from which this next Call hails has a salt water taffy shop?  If you get into the show, let me know.

STARCH,
please!

Newer isn’t always better.  Once upon a time, all fast-food french fries were similar to the yumminess that is McDonald’s fries.  But about a decade ago, someone (to protect the guilty, I won’t mention their names) decided that all fast food fries needed to be crispier and started add weird stuff to mashed potatoes and extruding a fry-like stick that my family calls “starch sticks.”  Luckily, the golden fries from the golden arches remain the same as always.  This next Call gives you an opportunity to prove that newer isn’t always better.
