Street Food

You’re standing at a food stand watching the cook and you’re genuinely curious and genuinely nervous, which is probably the honest response to eating something made in a place you can’t fully see by someone you can’t fully talk to. The safe bet is going where the locals go, where volume and speed mean less time for things to sit around. Or you ignore that entirely and eat at whatever looks sketchy, which you’ll remember far more vividly than anything from a real restaurant. You might get sick. You probably won’t. Either way you’ve got a story. That’s probably the point.
