My birthday present to myself was a brand new grill, my first ever, upon which I cooked up 10 New York strips from Hickory Nut Gap Farm for myself and friends….

Remember now, I was a vegetarian for 8 years up until about 3 weeks ago…

Damn skippy.

Not really ‘falling off the wagon’, more of an ethical re-alignment…

Just eggs for me thanks. I have had enough sour Kraut for one day.

Ba-doom, ching!

to get back on topic ....

i had small strips of basa drizzled in a mixture of flour and toasty cornmeal with creole spices
gently fried. Laid caringly on an thin 8 inch flour tortilla tenderly dressed with shredded leaf lettuce, chopped cherry tomatoes, bits of avacado, and a swirl of a spicy carribean cream sauce

and a side of the dirtiest rice you can make without an x rating

How have I missed this thread?

My favorite best last meal was sweet breads from Zambras.
Also, the Monte Cristo from Usual Suspects is incredible.

the sweetbraeds at zambras are very good ...

you don’t see good monte cristos very often ... mind make a note of that ...
i expect it will be better than lost

T.K. Tripps used to make a good Monte Cristo, but I haven’t seen it on the menu in a long time. Garfield’s makes a terrible one.

tattttms, are you drunk? Those typos say yes! Definitely check it out.

And heed brebro’s advice, Garfield’s Cristo is shite.

I haven’t had a drop today… it is the computer

I love Monte Cristos too, Cheddars has one and it was blah.  Garfields is closed so no more crappy ones from there.  Oh I just might have to break out the frydaddy.
