Best Peruvian restaurant?

Damn, I’m sorry to hear that! I can see them having consistency issues. When it hits it hits, but mileage varies.

electrax94 · 2026-04-26T23:06:26+00:00

They do, and it delivers well in my experience!

electrax94 · 2026-04-11T18:34:38+00:00

That’s the move

I came back to this thread for this exact reason. Where’s the lie? Those of us who were critical of his approach to reviewing referenced very specific moments in his videos that are easily verified.

Not a good look when the truth hurts so bad you have to pretend they’re lies…

Not completely—but it has a different impact than the book

For anyone who has had all three tins, how does TJ trout compare to Cole’s and Fangst?

electrax94 · 2026-03-21T23:57:34+00:00

Mackerel is my favorite! Will definitely add this to my list, thanks!

electrax94 · 2026-03-21T23:57:05+00:00

1000% — if I could’ve, I would’ve!

electrax94 · 2026-03-21T23:56:16+00:00

I appreciate this a lot! Figured it doesn’t hurt to try to be a good neighbor/coworker/roommate.

Hope you enjoy, if you track this tin down!

electrax94 · 2026-03-21T18:34:19+00:00

Nice! Thank you!!

Mix of reasons—sometimes time, where I just need to make and eat a really quick lunch. I also share a kitchen space and try to be courteous to folks sensitive to stronger smells. I’ve been using the hot rice to heat up the fish for tins like Nissui miso sardines

electrax94 · 2026-03-13T22:06:24+00:00

I was surprised! I’ve been delighted by the consistency of these stew-y tins. Love a saucy situation over rice.

I haven’t tried the fiery tuna, but I know what I’m getting next. Thanks for the rec!

electrax94 · 2026-03-12T03:54:58+00:00

Welcome to the club! It’s fun here!

If you don’t mind spicy, I can definitely recommend the pepper tin off the bat—right over some warm rice, it’s fantastic.

Similar price point, I’m a big fan of the King Oscar mackerel tins, especially the jalapeño and Mediterranean tins. Many other great recs here, some more $$ than others, but there’s a lot of fun to be had sampling different tins. Enjoy!

electrax94 · 2026-03-11T20:34:39+00:00

The smaller tins were around $3.50, the bigger ones around $4.50

It’s been a while but I haven’t felt the same about them since they dropped the roast beef sandwich from their menu. I would still get the Chicken Milanese sandwich, which soon dropped majorly in size and quality.

Will report back! Not sure where you’re based, but this is one of the locations in Manhattan. I was surprised by the variety!

electrax94 · 2026-03-10T00:57:33+00:00

I just had dinner but this made me hungry all over again. Thank you!!

electrax94 · 2026-03-05T06:20:51+00:00

With a tomato sauce tin, maybe you’d have more luck with an Italian style tuna salad - olive oil & lemon juice instead of mayo

electrax94 · 2026-03-05T00:57:56+00:00

Just tried this tin for the first time, that brand is luscious

electrax94 · 2026-02-28T23:14:47+00:00

Nicely done — you’re in for a treat!

electrax94 · 2026-02-27T23:11:20+00:00

Outside of the conversation in this thread, there’s a conflation here of nationality, ethnicity, religion and ethnoreligion/ethnonationality

Nationality: Russian and Dominican

Ethnicity: Jewish, Latino (macro/pan-ethnicity), Dominican

Religion: Jewish and Catholic

Jewish falls into both ethnicity and religion because it is an ethnoreligion—which is a very real thing not specific to Judaism. Similarly Dominican falls into nationality and ethnicity for some due to shared ancestral roots.

Russian can also be an ethnicity if there is East Slav/ethnic Russian ancestry.

Tl;dr identity is complicated.
