[bullet08]

Brunswick Stew
Vegetable Soup with bacon dripping
Clam chowder New England style

 

[sham]

Ribeye Steak, medium rare, heavily (kosher) salted
Homemade sourdough with salted butter & local honey
Weller, neat
Cheesey grits

 

[Sigmund]

Cheese and a baguette. (specific cheese varies with mood)

Rare pan fried duck breast. Great for a meal and leftover makes amazing sandwiches.

Good chocolate in so many ways.

 

[karam]

Hmmm...

Perfect food? Hamburger with bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles, spring onion, with chunky chips and tartar sauce for dipping. For me nothing comes close.

 

[Sigmund]

You are making me hungry and I just ate.

Lemon Meringue Pie.
Southern Pecan Pie.
NY Apple Pie.
Scottish Meat Pie.
Jellied Eel.

 

[Lumbridge]

Homemade guacamole, pico de gallo, salsa, hummus, and babaganoush. Delicious and healthy, which makes them damn near perfect in my book.
A good chicken biryani is up there for me too, albeit not so healthy.

Cinnamon raisin Bagel with lox and chive cream cheese, red onion, lettuce and tomato and side sour dill pickle, every now and then because there is nothing else like it.

What, no capers?

You mean those little green things that tastes like cat piss? Never figured out where to used them. I guess some type of cold fish disk like poached salmon, maybe.

Capers are wonderful to have in the pantry and add a pop of mustard like flavor (as capers are pickled Mediterranean flower buds). I always have some on hand.

Excellent with lemon, these tasty morsels add a burst of flavor to various dishes like chicken/veal picatta, salmon, pasta Puttanesca, and Greek flair.

Smoked salmon and lox is my favorite breakfast/brunch meal, on a bagel with cream cheese, diced onion, and tomato slices (minced hard boiled egg is optional). And smoked salmon cream cheese is a decent substitute.

Here is a lightly smoked salmon filet with dill and lemon pepper cream cheese, diced onion and capers.

I was going to the store for odds and ends but now I'm going to get and make something similar to the above for dinner tonight and getting bagels for breakfast tomorrow a.m. Yes, I have no will power when it comes to great food ... and Lemon/pepper was on my list anyway !!! I may just have to look at this thread to plan my meals from now on !!

Hey, each to their own my friend.

The Banh mi I made with this char siu inspired pork loin was just about perfect. I washed it down with some tart lemonade and that put it over the top.

Yeah, that’s daddy’s little girl.

Ten freshly steamed White Castle hamburgers from a White Castle location (not from the frozen food section in a supermarket). Mmmmm.

Yep. I'd take these over just about anything else posted in the thread.
