GO: Last Meal

Something from George’s at the Cove in La Jolla.

A giant hunk of prime rib swimming in au jus and horseradish…a good red wine and the biggest pitcher of beer you can find.

Seafood gumbo from Commander’s Palace, New Orleans….bone-in dry-aged ribeye from David Burke’s Primehouse, Chicago accompanied with a bottle of Ridge Monte Bello…..dessert Emeril’s banana cream pie…..all served oceanside at the Hotel del Coranado, San Diego.

Chris in Illinois – If you’re being executed tomorrow – I doubt the Hotel del will be in the offering but I wouldn’t mind spending my last night on earth there.

I would take prime rib exactly as mentioned by jswan and a side of original lasagna made like my aunt used to make when I was a teenager.

I’d like to place my order. I’d like a massive Gyro sandwich with extra meat and extra tzatziki sauce with a side of cheese fries, large mug of cheerwine with a blondie for dessert that is smothered with raspberry sauce, bananas and whipped cream.

15 Dr. Peppers. Just like Forrest Gump at the White House.

Chicken Fried Steak, creamy white gravy, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, and Dublin Dr. Pepper. Peach cobbler made in a dutch oven for desert.

All the things I can’t eat (in peace) around my vegan girlfriend.
Raw Oysters (3 dozen)
King Crab legs (3 dozen)
Jumbo Prawns (3 dozen)
Plus…
A gallon of Pilsner Urquell

I don’t know that I can decide all of it, but there would be a pineapple shake from Superdawg! And I think I’d need a piece of key lime pie, too.

@BLPCB—15 Dr. Peppers sounds like a 3 inning outing from Zambrano when Rothschild was pitching coach…

Doug, RE: your vegan girlfriend and oysters: http://www.slate.com/articles/life/food/2010/04/consider_the_oyster.html

Second, third and fourth the Urquell.

I try and eat every meal like it is my last, hard to narrow down just one. I would go with a bone in filet with a pepper corn sauce and a Cabernet I have never tried before, Screaming Eagle and a Peter Michael. I would add have my wife’s pork chops as a second course with a side of linguine carbonara. This would be eaten in the company of some live music, maybe some big band music with some horns to some blues, kinda like Roomful of Blues for my wife and I to dance to. For dessert I would have my wife.

The person who ratted me out. That is my last meal. Muhahahahahaha!

Does anyone else think it’s slightly odd that the site is called “View From The Bleachers,” yet the picture that has been incorporated with the title is taken from…oh, I don’t know…Terrace Reserved. Wouldn’t that technically be a “View OF The Bleachers?”

Well you still ought to mention that plants are killed too

Ryan – never noticed – just longing for those hot summer days at Wrigley.

I was also thinking about leaving a mess.
A case of Mentos followed by a 2 liter bottle of coke.

Speaking of Mentos, great commercial I saw in India many years back, this guy is at a bar, it’s closing time, and one of the workers wants to get out so he can go home, but this guy won’t leave, so he takes a Mentos, and starts vacuuming. Goes over to the guy, sticks the hose on his ass, and he downs everything, drink and straw in 2 seconds.

I looked it up, the way to make an effective explosion is the mint flavored Mentos with Diet Coke. It has to do with the fact that they don’t have any coating allowing for more surface area, and there is something in the aspartame that causes a huge explosion

I like Dixie Kitchen in Evanston as well. The Southern Sampler just like Barry had. “I’m looking for food that tastes good for a good price.”
They got cornbread and fried green tomatoes, and they are delicious. Went with my parents, we also tried the Peach Wings, delicious

The thing that makes mentos work well is that while the surface seems smooth to the touch and naked eye, it is covered with microsopic pores and craters. This is the type of surface that facilitates the generation of CO2 bubbles from the soda.
