Acupunk[/left];2924964]LOL, I think some people do choose to downsize, but I actually know what you mean. I've only lived in the places that are small to you like San
diego
, San Francisco and Detroit, but once I was thinking of moving to Flagstaff AZ and I ended up changing my mind because there was only one Thai restaurant and it was closed on Sunday. I
filpped
out realizing their were no other choices. I need at least 5
thai
restaurants nearby, you probably have 25.
I don't me to be a snob. However, I know what you mean. In Chi there are 4 french
vietnames
restaurant
in the loop. Now where outside of N.Y. or Chi are you going to find any french

Every place where there's a Vietnamese restaurant, so every decent sized city I've ever been to. That's Vietnam's colonial history. I can think of three off the top of my head just in the Allston neighborhood of Boston. Dude, if you're going to throw stuff out like that at least make it hard.

OK! you've done your homework! Well then you know that according to all respected source there are only five 5 star restaurants in New York, and 3 in Chicago(that's how rare they are on this side of the pond) and NONE in Boston! Case closed!

And by the way, I said FRENCH VIETNAMESE! You are aware that all Vietnamese restaurants aren't French.

I really couldn't tell since I've never been to either. However I had the exact same question as you since I live in Toronto CND (no we don't all end sentences with eh and currently have an opportunity to work in both cities.

Are you kidding about 5 star restaurants in Boston? Ever heard of L'Espalier? There are MANY 5 star restaurants in Boston, however they tend to be less flashy and highly advertised as ones in places like Chicago, where people still feel the need to prove that they are cultured.

Oh spare me your pathetic attempt to appear as if you have 'culture' or a clue. Those who were brought up properly, taught to view the world with an open mind, and truly have culture do not succumb to cheap provincialism.
Of course there are excellent restaurants in Boston, I've had the pleasure of eating at more than a few over the years (I have a lot of family from there), just as there are excellent restaurants in Chicago.
I agree. I find Chicago to be extremely clean for its size. Sure there are spots that are not so clean, but every city has areas like that. Downtown Chicago is immaculate, IMO.
I had to add to this, I had relatives that live in Florida that visited Chicago and a colleague from work and they both said the same thing, that Chicago is extremely clean, especially downtown.
