Reply to comment by TheChocolateMelted in What is the meaning of the depth Patrick Bateman goes into about music in American Psycho? by ChairmanUzamaoki

There is no fuckin way the foods he talks about are real lmao I always thought it was just an amalgamation of fancy sounding ingredients, because most of the things sound horrible

Honestly don't remember the actual foods - apart from when his fiance puts sushi on a plate to spell out his friend's initials - so they could have been made up. There's also a point where he becomes frustrated with it all and just says it's overpriced with almost nothing on the plate. :-)

But what was it? The topics on The Patty Winters Show become increasingly crazy ... Not even sure whether I picked them up when I read the book, but someone listed them here once.

I remember laughing out loud at his mention of cherimoya sorbet and trying to explain to a friend why it was funny.
