Three jump out at me. The first was chicken tacos at a little roadside place near Tulum in Mexico. The second was foie gras at Lautrec, a French restaurant in Nemacolin resort. Also on my short list were the boat noodles at a little canal side stall near Victory Monument in Bangkok. This was the biggest surprise, as my son had to convince me to even try it. The sight of the chef ladling pig's blood into the broth was intimidating. The fact that it was one of the best thing I'd ever eaten, at about $0.30/bowl, caught me completely by surprise.
