You are saying I can recommend we go to an oyster bar and he's supposed to have a grilled cheese at home and just sit there and drink? Seems like I should find a different seafood place with oysters on the menu so we can both enjoy.
Of course that rule does not apply to meeting new people or work dinners where someone else is in charge of the choice, as making a fuss over food while in the process of getting food is bad form (other than on the FB of course). To the extent that is your point, I am on board.

Moderation and mutual consideration in all things seems to work. I can suffer through the occassional steakhouse, despite eating no red meat for health reasons, but would not suffer through friends who only went to steakhouses, consistently ignoring my preference for a good seafood place or a nice Thai or Chinese restaurant.
I even think I could handle a place without a liquor license every now and then, though I'd question why?
Does anyone want to talk politics over here? The PB is obsessed with sex today.
