For those of you who know me, you know that I detest Cilantro. It is a vile, disgusting, awful herb. I can't stand the taste or the smell. It sends me fleeing for my life.
It looks so innocent. Parsley-like. Put it in food and some people are ecstatic. They rave about the joyous flavour it adds to food.
I disagree.
Try having it shoved up your nose. That flavour stays there for hours. I was going to say days, but that's just an unfair exaggeration.
I went to an Afghani restaurant on Friday night for dinner. Decor was quaint. Was BYOW. No amount of wine could take away from the fact that every menu item except for the fried eggplant (that wasn't really fried) and the pumpkin had coriander. It was so sad!
