I *never* let someone else choose my menu item, even if they are
paying for lunch. For that matter, what kind of asshole would expect
you to go along with their recommendation just because they're
buying?? I must be starting to think like Sheldon, but this whole
story sounds like a load of crap...

Oh screw what you think, he told me I should try this item so I did. And I
didn't like it. And it turns out I don't like mole sauce. So there.

I find it hard to believe you never, ever went out where someone recommended
an item on the menu and you didn't acquiese and give it a try. Sheesh,
what's the big deal? It's not like he asked me to march into the restaurant
naked. He recommended the item, I said OK. No biggie. I won't order it
again. Won't keep me from going back to Las Tortugas; I definitely enjoyed
the chicken tamales on my last visit.

I told him all about what I thought of his new house and he didn't want to
hear it even though he brought up most of the problems himself. Like, no
electrical outlet in the garage. I said WHAT? No electrical outlet in the
garage?! (Hey, it's netting me a free freezer so woo hoo!!)

And he asked if I thought his queen bedroom set with a bed, nightstand and
dresser would fit in one of the upstairs bedrooms. But he also wanted room
for an entertainment center, which would negate room for the dresser. So I
said, forget the entertainment center, put the dresser right there. He
said, "Don't tell me what to do with my own house." Uh, okay... but you
asked!

I haven't had a TV in my bedroom for 15 years and hasn't killed me yet.
He's not opening an INN, after all. :)

In other words, I don't mince words. But he was buying lunch, so I got the
stuff with mole and avocados... I'm not thrilled about avocadoes either, by
the way LOL

I don't care whether you like mole sauce -- I've never even tried
it myself. It sounds way too easy to screw up.

> I find it hard to believe you never, ever went out where someone recommended
> an item on the menu and you didn't acquiese and give it a try.


Not that I recall, but if I did, it would be because it sounded good,
not because they were paying for it. I've had too many disappointing
restaurant meals to let someone elses tasted decide for me.

> Sheesh, what's the big deal? It's not like he asked me to march

> No biggie.


You said yourself "But Scott seemed to want me to try this other
thing and since he was paying for it, I did.". That's the part that
sounds like bull to me -- you usually come off as the type of person
that doesn't give in that easily.

Well, I wouldn't order it *there* anyway.

There are hundreds of recipes for Mole and it will vary depending on the region.
Being from Mexico doesn't mean he's able to make a good Mole. There are many mole
sauces that do not have chocolate in any form; for example, In Oaxaca, it's yellow
and has a base of yellow chiles (chilhuacle amarillo), and around the Gulf you'll
find green moles made with tomatillos.

That being said, it is, like everything we eat, subjective. You've decided you don't
like it. Plenty of other people love it. It's all in the taste buds. It does sound,
however, like the mole you had wasn't a particularly good one. It shouldn't be overly
sweet, or taste like sugar.

pffft Sheldon's the one who would be telling you what to order and if you
dared oppose him he would berate you for an hour and call you names whenever
he wasn't leering down the waitress' shirt.

Mighta been me. I've used it enough to know it's consistent. Not in
the same league as expertly prepared home or good restaurant fare, but
a good starting point and very easy. For me, mole is one of those
delicious things that are worth spending a lot of time on for the fun
of it and the promise of a great result, but it's also one of those
things I get a yen for when I don't have that much time. Then I get
the jar out of the cupboard. I believe Doņa Maria has started
marketing one of the other moles -- it might be the one made with
pumpkin seeds, I can't recall, and I haven't tried it yet.

I haven't frozen chicken mole but wouldn't foresee any problem with
doing that. -aem

I agree, but I would have said it a lot more nicely. Or nicelier.

Anyway, seniority is completely irrelevant here, as far as I'm
concerned. If it's a person's first post or their millionth, they're
entitled to respect, unless they've proven that they deserve
otherwise.

Good mole is a thing of beauty. It's so complex that it's
understandable why it might not be to the taste of underdevelloped
palates. Having said that, I loved it from the get-go. First had it
at a little hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant in Woodland,
California. Then another small establishment in L.A. with Kay and
Jack. Oh my god. Fabulous stuff! I particularly love their mole
negro. The restaurant is called Guelaguetza (it's a Oaxacan
restaurant, natch) in Culver City.

Exactly. I posted using the respect that I think that jill deserves.
You haven't/can't read what she posts (also demanding respect "because

alt.food.barbecue.

Hmmmmm. Feeling a little testy today? But I don't think your topic
will generate much controversy. Everybody knows mole doesn't work in
the Mid South. Must be the humidity. Or the fear of dark, rich, complex
things.

I don't post to alt.food.barbecue unless perhaps to ask about kili's
address. Bet you have no idea what's going on with kili, do you? But
funny, she called me yesterday so I know.

As for what I post, I post my opinions. And mole sauce is waaaaaay down on
the list, AFAIK. I won't run out of my way to try it anywhere, that's all
I'm saying.

Ours did too, over the summer. I was glad because I was tired
of the holes in the yard, I just wish she hadn't eaten the
head off... :-P

Yup - my HS GF was Mexican, and to her Mole was exactly that - a
chocolate-based sauce with red chiles, slightly sweet. Yum.

My wife is also Latina, but her family came from Southern
Colorado/Northern New Mexico. To her, a Mole is what I see other folks
describe as a salsa verde. Also yum. But totally different.

I've never had a Oaxacan mole - sounds good to me tho.

I dunno, is that 3rd out of 3? ;-) But all kidding aside, I'd love
to have it, and I'm probably not alone...
