Notes on an overheard conversation about a dish at a restaurant being featured on television

“Yeah … no. Get rid of the sweet plantains and I'd be all over that. With the plantains, no.”

“But you eat plantains when you have the skirt steak at Cuban restaurants.”

“Yes, but I save those for dessert.”

“Everything goes to the same place—your stomach.”

“Yeah, but my stomache doesn't have taste buds.”

“You're just like my brother. He wants everything separated on his plate.”
