If you can't say something nice… A self-aggrandizing intergalactic food critic runs afoul of a prideful chef, and gets an unexpected lesson in alien cuisine, living, and manners. If you enjoy a tale with some of the flavor of Edgar Alan Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado," give "A Dish Best Served" a read. "A Dish Best Served" is a science fiction short story, and is also available in the collection "Things I Could Get OUT OF MY MIND."
