"Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software"

"
No sooner does Stallman say this than the door to the
restaurant swings open and we are invited back inside
by the host. Within a few seconds, we are seated in a
side corner of the restaurant next to a large mirrored wall.
The restaurant's menu doubles as an order form, and
Stallman is quickly checking off boxes before the host
has even brought water to the table. "Deep-fried shrimp
roll wrapped in bean-curd skin," Stallman reads.
"Bean-curd skin. It offers such an interesting texture.
I think we should get it."
This comment leads to an impromptu discussion of
Chinese food and Stallman's recent visit to China. "The
food in China is utterly exquisite," Stallman says, his
voice gaining an edge of emotion for the first time
this morning. "So many different things that I've never
seen in the U.S., local things made from local
mushrooms and local vegetables. It got to the point
where I started keeping a journal just to keep track of
every wonderful meal."
The conversation segues into a discussion of Korean
cuisine.
