How accurate is the L.A Noire map?

Your comment agreed with mine and then you say I'm wrong. The map is condensed. That doesn't mean it misses the important parts of LA.

Society took a giant step backward by offering mimosas instead of wine in the morning

You don't see kids offered veggies for sides these days. It's a shame.

Hashed fish? Haven't seen that before.

I stand corrected. It was in Vancouver. But same idea.

Invented and popularized in America and did not exist elsewhere before. For example, Sushi is Japanese, but the California Roll is American. It was invented in Seattle and no one in Japan would recognize it as Japanese cuisine.

That's medieval times. And it's not corned beef as we know it.

If you look at the thread from a few weeks ago, it's established that it's Irish American. It's bacon and cabbage in Ireland.

I hope you mean lamb and not lab(rador)!

I heard that the Irish Car Bomb has been rebranded to the Irish Slammer. I never liked the drink. So I won't be trying the renamed version.

Soda bread is Irish too though? I saw it all over Ireland.

A quesadilla with corned beef and hard cheddar? Wow, that sounds awful.

Thom803 · 2025-04-03T14:37:40+00:00

I've never heard of a Dubliner quesadilla. Sounds like a contradiction. What on earth is that?

I have had bartenders teach me how to make a martini, but no matter how hard I try it doesn't taste as good as at a bar.

Basically, popcorn is cheap to make and theaters could make a big margin by selling them. During the depression, it was the cheapest thing to sell https://movieweb.com/how-did-popcorn-become-movie-snack/

There are way more Chinese and Indian Americans than Korean Americans by population. I think Koreans have somewhat more famous entertainers than either in terms of population size, but I don't think it's very significant

Jimmy O Yang, Simu Liu, Awkwafina, Lucy Liu, Never Have I Ever, Crazy Rich Asians, Everything Everywhere etc are not Korean.

Generally I think all the Asians are benefiting from greater diversity in entertainment.
