The new html edition of Tyler Cowen’s Ethnic Dining Guide

You'll find it here, namely on my home page (you may need to scroll down).  This version of the guide has more revisions than any other new edition, mostly because there has been a lot of quality turnover.  More than half of the "Top 20" list has changed in the course of a year.  Currently my two favorite places are Sichuan Pavilion and Abay Market (you now can and indeed have to order vegetables in advance), with Thai X-ing a perennial.  Komi is the "finest" dining and Bourbon Steak is the place most likely to be better than you think.

I should note that if you've been following the blog version of my dining guide, the html version is simply a print-it-all-out-at-once compendium, rather than a source of new information.

tyler — been a fan of your dining guide for a while — although I suspect you use it as a front to promote your anti-city agendas.

But could you just stick with a default HTML address, rather than changing it every edition? Unless you want to drive people to you uni web page?

How about a Tyler Cowen (Travel) bleg compendium ? Lot of good stuff in the responses to your blegs.

Hmmm, an ethnic dining guide. What do Hmung taste like?

(Surely I’ve used that one before. I like to get a lot of ROI on my jokes)

Tyler -

you seem to have left out the heading for Abay Market in your top list, and not bolded the heading for Inn at Little Washington under Fine Dining.

I wonder if you could adopt an icon for rating these places for their skill in maximizing the utility of the products of ADM, Monsanto, GMO foods, fruits and vegetables breed for maximum long distance travel and uniform appearance. Perhaps a modification of the ADM trademark icon.

The beauty of free markets is the convergence on commodities, which by definition are undifferentiated, at the lowest possible prices, by the most efficient and least labor intensive means. Clearly as an economist you should be rating these places on their progress toward this free market success.
