Where to Live?

Denver;
My macaroni and cheese.
All this sunshine and no water is unhealthy for me.
Everybody likes it but its hardly anyone's favorite food.
Midwesterners with their bland taste buds move here.
But mac n' cheese tastes great on a camping trip.

Puerto Escondito;
Fresh Fish caught from the Sea;
Salsa from local vegetables, tortillas made on the spot.
I just got done surfing.
I have no agenda except to drink out of a coconut on a beach hammock.
I have no job.

Minneapolis;
Hot dish.
Its not too impressive but its got everything you need.
Cheese, noodles, meet, salt, hot, melty, saucy.
Its hardy just like the kids playing hockey on frozen ponds
all winter...
even when its 20 below.

Chicago;
My Ruben sandwich.
Saurcraut takes time to make and gets better with age.
I think its Jewish but Russians like them too.
Old men eat Rubens in Martini bars
Rubens are delicious but I can't have them every day!

New York;
The chef's special sushi roll.
I can't predict what will be in it, but it will be an exciting party.
Fresh and stylish, presentation is important
I could eat it every day
Until I get the bill!

Ireland;
Lamb Stew
Cooked slowly in a kettle.
In a pub filled with old farmers, families
Guinness tastes good there.
It feels like home; but not mine.

Eugene;
Organic Vegan black bean burger on a sprouted, uncooked bun.
I enjoy it every time I eat it.
With all my vegan hipter, seek, witch doctor, homeless philosopher friends
But sometimes I want a big steak.
And my vegan hipster seek witch doctor homeless philosopher friends do not eat steak.

I guess I haven't found the perfect dish.
