So you're on Death Row and you get the last meal of your choice...
« on: September 12, 2007, 08:22:29 PM »
And the chef is a professional, not some hick in the prison called Cookie  ;D

Wha'cha gonna have?  (this was one of my favourite round robin emails at my job...)
Starter:

Main Dish:

Dessert:

I'd answer first but i'm still deliberating over the starter.. or should I skip to have a bigger dessert?  :P

Starter: Fried Okra! Loads of it!

Main:  Massive mexican feast of yummy cheese enchiladas with tomitillo sour cream sauce, rice, beans, and corn tortillas with chili con queso to dip them in.

Dessert:  Dark Chocolate cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries (not the sugary syrupy stuff, just fresh).

And now that I have eaten myself to death, they won't have to bother with all the details of last rights, speaking, etc.  :P

This one is easy for me.  All from Casalinga in Florence.

Starter: Ribollita

Main course: Roast chicken and potatoes

Salad: insalata mista populare

Dessert: Torta della nonna

Heaven!  ;D But I'm not sure if I could appreciate it if I was in death-row!

Hmmm... there are many to choose from, but today's choice would be:

appetizer: Maryland crab dip with baguette

main: steak with a fab mushroom sauce, the perfect baked potato with sour cream and butter, and a salad with blue cheese dressing

dessert: Mom's apple pie with ice cream
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

I have a feeling I would be so sick to my stomach that I wouldn't be able to eat, but I'll play along.

Starter-crab rangoons

Main-my mom's fried chicken, pizza, fries and macaroni cheese (maybe I would die from a heartattack before they could execute me.)

Dessert-My mom's coconut cake or lemon cake and Mars bar.  I'm hungry now!

Dim sum from Ocean Seafood in Los Angeles.  It's starter, main and dessert all wrapped into one!

When i read the title, i had an idea what answers I was going to give, but now that I've read everyone elses entries, I just can't decide!

For a starter, i think i will join Melissa on the fried calimari & ranch dressing.

Main: something gooey with melted cheese... probably something like a cheese & sour cream enchilada.

pud:  Zuppa Englese from La Fiorentina at the Paisley Road Toll.

Starter: Fried Calamari (always loved it with some remoulade or however you spell that)

Main Dish: My grandma's fried chicken, fried okra, mashed potatoes, gravy, my mother's broccoli casserole, and a few dinner rolls with butter. And some of those salad peppers.. the little yellow/green ones.

And a Guinness. Or five.

Dessert: Fresh, ripe, sweet strawberries dipped in that hard chocolate and chocolate covered toffee bites. YUM!

Starter: Buffalo wings from Hooters

Main course: Double cheeseburger from the Beacon Drive-in in Spartanburg, SC with a huge portion of their real onion rings

Dessert: A tub of chocolate with bits of various choclate bars and cookies in it.

Drink: 2 litre of Pepsi

Since of course I don't have to worry about things like my figure, heart disease and diabetes.

This is not an easy question at all

Starter: An everything bagel from H&H on the Upper East Side (Of NYC) with really good cream cheese and really really good lox, maybe a bit of tomato and onion as well, but not much.


Main Dish:  Sushi from Jellado on the lower East Side (Of NYC) Mainly Salmon and Salmon Roe with a few rolls in there as well.  Also a Super Pork Burrito from Anna's Taqueria in Porter square (Cambridge, MA) with guacamole and sour cream and refried beans. OMG, I want one now!  And some Cajun Popcorn from the Border Cafe in Harvard Square (MA)

Dessert:  Hmm, something warm, gooey and chocolaty, something lemon flavoured and a cupcake or two from Magnolia Bakery in NYC  Oh and a banana split as well.

To drink I would like the Lemonade from The Cheesecake factory


I would need plenty of time to eat all of this, maybe even a few days :P  Hoping I get pardoned in the meantime :D

My last meals would be choices from restaurants back home that I loved. And the most sentimental out of all of those would be a Ham Stack, no cheese, no fries but extra apple cinnamon cups instead, please, the salad bar (lettuce, eggs, raisins, seeds, bacon, broc & cauli, tomatoes, peas, croutons & whatever else may catch my fancy, with heaps & heaps of bleu cheese dressing), and for dessert a slice of Chocolate Meringue pie, all from Marie Callandar's.
