...curry powder, and other ingredients particular to each chef). Fried oysters are classic Cajun fare, using a mollusk loved by the French but, at the time of the dish’s creation, inexpensive and largely overlooked in the United States. Tossed in a thin, crunchy batter and deep-fried, the juicy oysters, drenched in tangy remoulade, burst with flavor and steam heavily when they split open. Tupelo’s were, in our friendly and earnest waiter’s humble opinion, the best in the Boston area. Despite limited experience with Boston’s fried oysters...
...ingredients ubiquitous in Cajun cooking. Cajun catfish is often served “blackened”—lightly battered with a potent mix of garlic, cornmeal, flour, cumin, generous amounts of chili, and other spices—and pan fried until the spices have bubbled to a deep golden brown and let off a resinous, intoxicating steam.

Romance.” In one sketch, Francisco invited the audience to imagine the voiceover to an upcoming action flick actually being honest...
...boundaries of his role as Montgomery’s superior, and an ambivalent Montgomery is slowly drawn to Stone’s sincere rambling. Foster plays Montgomery with admirable restraint, highlighting the character’s overwhelming desire to control his own emotions. His silences are imbued with a deep confusion; his eyes communicate a tremendous burden of which he lacks the words to describe. Moverman’s privileging of the rapport between Stone and Montgomery hints at a tragic corollary: war seems to have robbed both men of any meaningful connections apart from their professional relationships even...
