I said, OK, I can wait.I was being nice about it and I'm not pissed, I just want to keep everyone happy.In all fairness, I think the African side didn't start the bickering or comments.We replied because it was wrong.If you choose something else, everybody loses. Let Ramen go first, then they'll be more likely to participate when African comes afterwards.My wish is for people to try African food, it's good and uses a lot of chillies. I thought it was perfect for this TD. In fairness, I'm willing to appease the older members if they feel strongly about Ramen and hope they'll be more open to try African in the future. I think if they have the time, they'll do some research, do some pre-preparation dishes, get love
African dishes and I'll be happy. That way, the THP will have more African seeds if things like Kapco Shitto, Bere Bere, Piri Piri, etc become more popular. I feel , we'll put some good cooks- people off of it forever if we force it thru this time.BTW- even with a month , you are still going down on African TD.(lol)
That's not what you messaged me Bootsie! You said you were really miffed about all this!
Damnitt Ela I am busy trying to stir this pot...and you're just showing off!

@ Bootsieb
This is a vote. Right Now it seems to be a vote between Ramen and "African". The majority of the regulars probably voted for Ramen since we've been talking about it for more than a year... and decided it was a good time to do it. African cuisine, with all its merits (and I do have some dishes that I like) came up ~15 days ago. [For some reason I "hear" anger from your posts. Even when you say your not, and I could totally be wrong... and I hope I am.] Let the vote roll, have fun with WHATEVER is decided (that's the point), and suggest African cuisine next time if it doesn't win this time around.

Sum,
African came up for Feb 2011. Ethiopian came up for Dec 2010. Moroccan came up for Dec 2009.
The continent and it's cuisines have come up many times. Maybe you just like ramen better!
You "assumed" it never came up, because you weren't interested.
And looking at the "regulars" it's about tied!
Bad stats bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you a politician?

just barely~~~~~
we had to stay up late to make sure Aaron and Megan go home safely. (that's my story and I'm stickin' to it)
I have one rockin' African recipe - ONE! And wouldn't ya know it, someone posted a link to the recipe!!!! Just my luck! 
But, as with ALL the TDs, I'm just looking forward to challenging myself with some fun cooking and creating! Or maybe it's really the eatin' part I like so much....
Tru dat SL!!!!!!!

Was it that African Chicken Stew I posted? That's some awesome stuff. If African wins I'm not going to make that though. My brother's gf grew up in Sweden, but she's of Ugandan descent. Her dad has a restaurant in Kampala, so even though she makes a mean swedish meatball, I know she has to have some solid African recipes she can help me out with.

Ha! Good catch El Jefe. Maybe it's just because I've heard RAMEN RAMEN RAMEN from FD for so long.
You know how WE do it. SoFlo with throwdown on WHATEVER is decided. And we'll kick some @$$.
I trust you to whip up an awesome entry MJ - regardless of what the TD is!!!!! I've been watching you.....!
Me too, SL, me too :smiley:
I'm excited about either of the top 2 entries. There's a bunch of real good gourmet ramen noodle restaurants in NYC that I might hit up for inspiration if it pulls through. If African wins, and Scoville incorporates an ostrich egg into his dish he already has my vote.
I was thinking Bald Eagle eggs, Ostrich eggs are too expensive. LOL
I'm all about People's Choice... just to show you...
You can now change your vote until NOON EST!
I had a PM asking to change a vote, if I do that, I need to allow everyone, plus, those in the losing sections can now voice your opinion on the top two! Let's see what happens here!!!
Haha just realized this is SoFlo style.... hanging chads!!!

Haha, yeah. There's a place in New Mexico that sells them for $55 a pop. How much is that next crown worth to you???
Florida is ridiculous like that. My chads are definitely hanging.
