Last Meal

topic posted Thu, September 8, 2005 - 6:30 PM by  AleMan™
If you were going away for a long time. This could be a trip into outerspace, or where ever and you will not be able to have the foods you love for a while....

What would be your send off meal? It could be anything, gourmet, not gourmet, what ever. I want to know what foods you would eat, paired with what beverages, deserts, appetizers, etc.

    hmmm.... something with my lover, I would want to share *smiles*...and all homemade foods...

    basmati rice with toasted coconut and slivered almonds, mashed sweet potatoes and yams, baked carrots and baked beets with beet greens, a cashew butter sauce, to drink: chilled, sparkling pear juice and after dinner, chamomile/peppermint tea with steamed soy milk...baked cinnamon apples for dessert. mmmmmmmmmmmm..... or vanilla soy-delicious with sliced mango on top...

    nothing fancy, just yummy food that always makes me feel cozy after... :)

    A medium rare filet mignon
    a raft of tuna, salmon, yellowtail, and albacore sushi/sashimi
    caesar salad
    broiled salmon
    thai yellow curry
    my mom's butter crescent rolls with mom-made berry jam
    dessert:
    NY cheesecake with fresh strawberries
    a double-shot 12 oz cafe mocha

    I could make all of these myself except the first two, but these are the foods I crave and would sorely miss.
    As for drinks, I would have the steak with a good California syrah, and all the others except the cheesecake with a good fresh hoppy IPA(don't make me choose just one of these, please)

      this actually happened to me, in a way. i moved to paraguay a year ago, and there are no thai, vietnamese, or indian resturants here in asuncion.

      so when back in SF before leaving, i had my last meal:

      indian oven chicken tikka masala
      garlic naan
      mango lassi

      and i overate and savored and attempted to guard those flavors in my cheek as a squireel does acorns.
