So, the next time you visit your favorite place for lunch and you decide to order according to “your taste”, rather than what is already paired for you, (make sure they allow it)don’t automatically assume that you are being difficult or picky. You are simply recognizing that you have certain uniqueness when it comes to choosing food.
If you are the type of person who enjoys putting different types of food together to make your favorite meal, post your creations to this site so we can all see what food parings you are most affectionate of.
Here is a clever blend of items I have compiled that resemble a bistro style lunch menu (my favorite)!
