Roast potatoes and other veggies in foil, all covered with melted butter, on that fire. Most people drink a nice IPA around here, but I like a good single malt myself.<br /><br /> A corruption of a traditional West Coast Haida feast. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-3147542975765993092020-12-16T12:44:07.863-05:002020-12-16T12:44:07.863-05:00As an alternative -- which I do not endorse, but r...As an alternative -- which I do not endorse, but raise for the purpose of discussion -- Epicurus might suggest that the perfect meal is less a feast of dozens of meats and cheeses, and more exactly the right amount of exactly the right foods. Perhaps a Beef Wellington, with a smaller but select array of cheeses that compliment its flavor; just the right wine, and exactly the right amount of it; a salad or vegetables chosen to provide the vitamins your body needs to feel as good as possible, which the main course did not. <br /><br />As for the cigar, perhaps there is no amount of tobacco that will enhance your sense of well-being as much as no tobacco at all. But that is a matter of personal choice.

I experienced this in Taiwan and each spectular one were of 13 courses ending with a special soup.<br /><br />2) Dim Sum --especially in Hong Kong with six or eight in party.<br /><br />3) Those meals with new bride when she was learning to cook. What special memories.<br /><br />Dan KurtDan Kurthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08252444956956894276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-80086903653987889352020-12-15T22:44:10.051-05:002020-12-15T22:44:10.051-05:00Eating you can do by yourself; dining requires fri...Eating you can do by yourself; dining requires friends.jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01792036361407527304noreply@blogger.com
