santiago

I've been through Santiago twice but was never able to get outside of the airport. I found it interesting that the only places that were open before 8 AM were a shop to buy sunglasses (they opened at 5 AM) and a very nicely stocked wine shop (6 AM). I guess the Chileans have figured out how to take care of their visitors' needs for everything except coffee.

I've got some friends in Chile in the wine biz who I'd be happy to ask for restaurant recs on your behalf.

You're tight with Interpol?

That's strange you haven't had any information of value in years.

True that, but perhaps a case could be made for my consistency?

You got it. The ultra-radical wing of the slow food movement. My boogaloo band got hired to play at one of their early conventions and I've been persona non grata at KFC ever since.

-Eden (what would a consistency case be made of, and would it be something you could carry on or would you have to check it?)
