COMC – International Edition: Places that didn’t make the cut in Madison, Chiang Mai, and Antalya (Turkey)

You may find it difficult to believe that we don't actually post on ALL the places we visit. Usually, if the Missus and I have an upscale dinner in San Diego, I usually don't take photos, unless it's happy hour or has some other interesting tie in. There usually are too many people around and I'm a pretty low-key person…..I don't like attention. And then there are those that just "don't make the cut"…it doesn't mean the place was terrible or anything, it could be that I just never got around to doing a post….of course, if it was a stellar meal, you know I'd have done a post.

So anyway, with a minimum of my blabbing, here's a trio that just never made it until I COMC'd (Cleared Out the Memory Card).

Inka Heritage – Madison Wisconsin:

**** Inka Heritage has closed

To my disappointment, I got to Mad-town during restaurant week and Inka Heritage had what amounted to a prix fix menu, so I had to go with what they had.

Ceviche 3 Ajies (3 peppers):

Pescado Inka Heritage:

Sooo much cheese…but heck, this is Wisconsin, right? What should I have expected.

The Wok Restaurant – Chiang Mai, Thailand:

The dishes looked so lovely, but just didn't deliver…..very bland, somewhat dumbed down. These folks run a cooking school I was thinking of joining….kind of glad I didn't.

The Wok Restaurant - Khao Soi

The Wok Restaurant - Red Curry

Ucyildiz – Antalya, Turkey:

So if MickeyD's, or say ChowKing came to Turkey, I'm thinking this is what the food would look like. Sorta artificial….funny, the photos in the menu looked so lovely.

 We still chuckle when we see the photos….you can't win 'em all.

Anyway, thanks for dropping by and reading….or staring, or whatever it is that you do when it;s mostly just photos!
