crazyDingo Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Oh no...no...no...Yes. What I mean squire is that R.Rich is a man of the world, you know, he's been around...he's done it...with a lady. 287714[/snapback] "A nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat."
R. Rich Posted March 25, 2005 Author Posted March 25, 2005 Hey Popeye, mine is Surf and Turf. 287767[/snapback] That's up there too, but I do love spinach. There's a diner not far from my house that makes excellent spinach and rice side dishes. Too bad they only offer it on the menu every so often though. What kind of surf n turf do you like? Filet mignon and lobster tail is pretty good.

VABills Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Charlie's Steakhouse sounds a lot like Shula's: a place with overpriced food and it's ala carte. No thanks. My wife and I had a $130.00 bill the first and only time we went there. 287738[/snapback] You want good steak go to Abe and Louie's in Boston. Expensive, but the bartender really fills the glases, and the bine in fillet is amazing. The hostesses look like they are off the cover of SI Swimsuit. This is probably the best steak place by far I have ever been, and I have been to some good ones.

todd Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Just curious. Mine is spinach. Seriously. 287605[/snapback] Garbage Plate. Usually cheeseburger plate, mac, everything. Sometimes in your honor I'll have a combo plate.
stuckincincy Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 That's the ticket. Another fav is something most people hate. Liver and onions. 287843[/snapback] You might like baked liver. Be sure to pound it with a mallet, cover with sliced onions and peppers, pour a 50/50 blend of ketchup and water over it, add pepper and a bit of salt, then bard it -cover it with bacon to oil and keep it moist. About a half hour at 350.
The Jokeman Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I'm probably going to die young as can't get enough fettucini alfredo.
stuckincincy Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I'm probably going to die young as can't get enough fettucini alfredo. 287858[/snapback] If you eat whole platefuls, yes. Arteries will be clogged and shut in no time. A quarter of a plate of fettucini alfredo, with some antipasto (light on the parmesan) some bread other than garlic toast, a splash of marinara sauce, and a half a cup of ricotta will fill ya up and leave room for a small dish of Italian ice cream (the Italians make the world's best, IMO).

As I don't make it myself nor do I find the frozen versions that tasty (though a few years ago Stouffers had a good version but thanks to my health they changed the recipe and I don't like it as much). Back to when I go out, I rarely finish the plate in one sitting, I usually end up taking it home and finishing it off around midnight or take it to work for lunch the next day. In terms of the rest of the meal, I'm not big on antipasto salad (I prefer my pasta warm though do enjoy Greek bowtie salad on occasion), I generally get a ceasar salad with some bread and my dessert of choice is cheesecake.
EndZoneCrew Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 "Mighty 6 packs-hot w/ sour cream"....mmmmmmm!

Astrobot Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 There's a place in Penfield (7 minutes from training camp) called Legends Grill, and their feta-stuffed shrimp, wrapped in bacon, on a bed of spinach is my favorite. Not a cheap place, but exquisite food and service, 12 tables and a fireplace.

From your original post, I thought it was your daily fare. Didn't mean to be critical, just some thoughts from an oldster who had to take medication since age 45 for high blood pressure. It's not terribly high - about 150/100 without the daily pill, but cardiopulmonary failure of some type or another knocked off most of my antecedents through the years, so the Doc put me on notice. Regarding the frozen stuff, my wife has become a big fan of the product line called "Healthy Choice". Their stuff is generally lo-cal, lower in fat, and I don't know, but they might have a fettucini dish for sale. If so, give it a try. My wife thinks their products taste fine. Of course, she's married to me, so I guess you could fairly question her taste...

IDBillzFan Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 That's the ticket. Another fav is something most people hate. Liver and onions. 287843[/snapback] I'm with you there. Fried liver with onions...covered in ketchup. Good eats. Something else I love, but wifey hates so I never get to make it at home: lamb. Lamb chops. Leg of lamb. Some mint jelly. Last time I had this was at Harry's Bar in Rome and it's the first time I've ever eaten a meal that gave me an erection.

Jersey, I'd go there around my birthday every year just for that special dinner. We'd even get to go to the Reading Terminal Market in Philly to pick out the lamb. She uses mint jelly, but I don't. Just the way she seasons it is good enough for me. She also makes it with a side of asparagus, and it is delicious!

Surfmeister Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Dear R. Rich - Seeing as you like G&M crabcakes, you are obviously a person with fine taste for gourmet food. We started out ordering crabcakes online from Angelina's (also of Baltimore), and we enjoyed those. Then, we heard of G&M crabcakes, so we tried them. We found the G&M crabcakes to be delicious! We think it turns out like a mini crab souffle, with the extra ingredients they combine with the crab meat. I was telling someone how good they were one day, when the person I was talking to recommended I try Timbuktu. To us, the crabcakes from G&M and Timbuktu are very close in quality, and let's face it, LIGHT YEARS beyond your run-o'-the-mill average crabcake that you could still end up paying 20-25 bucks for in a restaurant. I know, I've done it. Seeing that you like very high quality crabcakes, let me know if you have another recommendation of some other gourmet food we can order on line, because based on your taste so far, I could put 100% of my trust in your recommendation. Peace Out Surf.
