Pajiba

i'd have to go with a plentiful helping of chicken tikka masala with some naan and vegetable pakoras (so the whole room can smell me when they turn on the juice for the electric chair).

follow that with a caterpillar roll and some eel nigiri.

wash it down with some woodford reserve and coke.

then finish with a cookie dough blizzard (extra cookie dough, please) with hot fudge mixed in.

Mmmm. General Tao's Tofu from the Shanghai Restaurant here in Ottawa, extra veggie spring rolls, served with a nice glass of an off-dry riesling (damn right this thing will be quasi-snobby... it's my last meal, bitches!). Then for dessert I need some insane combination of my mom's apple pie, gobs of chocolate and Cool Whip, topped with copious amounts of raspberries and strawberries and ice cream. And then maybe some kind of deliciously ironic fortune cookie. Tadaaah!

DINNER
Shrimp & Grits (from my favorite local restaurant)
NY strip - med.rare
Fried Chicken (possibly Popeye's)
sweet potatoes
sauteed green beans

plus anything that's southern cooking would be fine with me.

BEVERAGE
Diet Coke
Parenga sparkling shiraz
Chardonnay

DESSERT
cheesecake
banana pudding
something gooey and chocolate

Well, since I'm going to Hell for making fun of retarded kids and being pro choice, let's kick this pig:

Appetizer: Boneless Buffallo strips from Karl Strauss Brewery

Main Course: Pernil (Puerto Rican dish: Seasoned, stewed pork) with white rice and beans, with a side of fried plantains (sweet).

Dessert: Brownie Sundae with Hot Fudge

Ohhhhh yeah, that seats gonna be messy when they throw that switch, baby.

And Dustin, kudos for the Steak-Umm reference. My fiance has no clue about the joy of Steak-Umm.

Yay! Food post.

I would have to say an order of shumai and Godzilla, Spider & Alaskan rolls from my favorite Japanese restaurant; (which has since changed hands -- sob!) a bottle of champagne; (preferably something too expensive to have previously experienced) and for dessert, an array of artisan truffles from my favorite local cafe, Haute Chocolate. (check 'em: hautecafe.net)

fried ravioli with marinara
greek salad
eggplant parmesan
garlic mashed potatoes
garlic bread- extra garlic
tiramisu
mint iced tea

Because I'm a southern girl at heart, I will have: sweet tea, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy. Peach cobbler and homemade vanilla ice cream. But then for fun, and I'll gorge since it is my last meal, add in some pinot grigio, brie cheese, baguette, and fresh strawberries.

It doesn't have to go together, it is my last meal.

My mom makes Pecan-Crusted Chicken that's to die for, but it was the best the first time she made it and it's never quite lived up to that first time. If it could be duplicated just like that, that's my bar-none final meal choice. You've got the chicken with mashed potatoes (again, last meal, so lay on the heavy whipping cream instead of the lower-fat chicken broth in there). Then some of the pecans fall off and you mix it in with the potatoes. Dear God. So good. Also, a Caesar salad, with Girard's light Caesar dressing.

To drink, um, a well-paired wine would be nice. No preference on that one. Dessert, too, I don't tend to be picky about. Something with a brownie and vanilla ice cream and raspberry sauce sounds nice right now.

Of course, part of me was tempted to just say a burger and fries from In-N-Out with a neopolitan shake.

Sadly, no matter how many five star restaurants I've been to around Boston, not one dish stood out as something I need to eat before I die.

The only food that comes to mind is a bacon cheeseburger from Wild Willy's in Watertown with a vanilla milkshake and fries. For dessert, a molten chocolate cake from Finale.

Just a question for the Pajiba writers, especially those that live or have lived around Boston:

Do any of you know the writers at The Weekly Dig? Cause...I feel like you might get along.

APP:


Seared Foie Gras w/ Sauternes

Lobster Ceviche



MAIN:

- Barbecue Ribs, Brisket, and Hot Links from this BBQ shack right off I-45/I-75 in Dallas near my wife's old apartment

- Grilled Cheese Sandwich (Yellow American on Wonder Bread of course)

- Corn on the Cob

- Anything my mom used to make [ sniff :( ]



BEVERAGES:

- Gallons of Thai Ice Tea

- Del's Frozen Lemonade (it's a Massachusetts thing)

DESSERT:

- Warm freshly baked brownie

- Banoffee Pie

- Chocolate Bread Pudding

- Lemon gelato from this place by the Trevi Fountain in Rome

That was great fun! I think I'd have a heart attack while the meal was progressing.

APP:

Seared Foie Gras w/ Sauternes

Lobster Ceviche

Fun! OK, so: My mom's Poulet Roti aux Herbes de Provence (which is roast chicken and potato and herbs, but she's French, bitch) and my dad's cheese grits with Kelly sausage (made only in Elba, Alabama) and some collards with pepper sauce, followed by giant plate of French cheeses (Mimolette, chevre, St. Andre, oh god...)and a fresh baguette, then some hot beignets and cafe au lait from the Cafe du Monde, New Orleans. So, lots of traveling before I get fried!

Great, now I have to go to Whole Paycheck and the French Quarter on my day off. Damn you, Pajiba!

Can't decide. Do, however, know my last meal would have to contain kalamata olives, eggplant roasted to liquid softness, avocado with lime and chilis, and cheese cheese cheese cheese and cheese (samples from all over the world).

And a glass of antique Chateau Lafite.

And the most perfect Eccles cake ever baked.

My mom makes these awesome spare ribs from a recipe Julia Child gave out on Good Morning America in the late-70s. So those, a growler of Uncle Sam Oatmeal Stout from the Troy Pub and Brewery, a chihuahua from Crif Dog in NYC (a hot dog wrapped in bacon with sour cream and slices of avocado), and some Belgian fries from Pommes Frites with horseradish mayo. And for dessert, a Chipwich.

3 dozen hot wings from the Anchor Bar in Buffalo NY, a basket of waffle fries, 4 wet naps, and 2 dozen heinekin lights.

Wow, am I the only Canadian here? And the only veggie? :S Though you guys are making me miss my meat-eating days, hehe... some of that fried chicken stuff sounds gooood right now!

Great diversion! Total fantasy meal. This could not be eaten in one sitting but each part has been thoroughly enjoyed at different times.

Appetizers: Tapas from Guadalupe Cafe in Malaga, Spain. Served with Saumur "Champagne" from Loire Valley, France.

Fish Course: Lobster Victoria from The Raffles Hotel in Singapore. Served with Gewurtraminer from Alsace/Lorraine.

Pasta: Rissoto w/ White and Black Truffles from the Vincenzo in Rome, Italy. Served with an Autralian Shiraz.

Entree: Venison Chops from the Chateau de Pont in Rilly, France. Served with a 1997 Chateauneuf de Pape.

Vegetables: Zuchini Frito from The Four Seasons, New York.

Salad: Caprese Marisco from the Villa Convento in Sienna, Italy. Served with a 2004 Vouvray.

Cheese: Stilton w/ carmelized walnuts and assorted pears. Served with a Porto Riserva.

Dessert: My aunt's Rice Custard ("Natillas") served w/ Homemade Irish Cream.

Liquor: Hennesey VSOP.

Since we are going for fantasy here: I want it served to me by Chris Meloni in the Bahia Verdi on the top floor of the Carioca Hotel in Rio de Janeiro.

Being from Southern Indiana and not too picky I would say a good club sandwich and waffle fries would do me over. And a well chilled bottle of green apple soda.

Green salad with blue cheese dressing
Prime rib, rare
Baked potatoe with lots of butter and sour cream
Home grown tomatos, salt and peppered
Mom's coconut cream pie

I've actually said this as I've eaten the meal: "Gosh, this would be totally what I wanted if I had to die tomorrow". Geoffrey's (Boston) has since closed, but I would make the feds find that chef (I'm going to federal prison, no small potatoes state stuff). The meal:
Pepper-encrusted seared tuna steak on garlic-mashed potatoes on garlic-seared baby spinach. I want to stink and say I ate "baby" in my last meal (I can't be rehabilitated - off to the chair) with Cakebread chardonnay and assorted gin cocktails to drink. Maybe a godiva/vodka/bailey's concoction with dessert: a chocolate pudding cake with real vanilla bean ice cream and hot fudge. I will have so much alcohol that I will flambe.

And, before I die, samplings of the following: Dali goat cheese Tapas (can't get it out of my mind now, Dustin!) with the sangria, of course.
A serving of my mom's chicken a la king and 2 biscuits. Casa de Pedro's tequenos and their shredded beef which I think has crack in it (I went for lunch 6 times in two weeks after the first time I had it). If I had any more room left, my mom's vanilla-raspberry parfait and one of her whoopie pies. She makes awesome desserts, but the chicken a la king was my favorite meal as a kid.

When I gain 10 pounds this week, I blame pajiba!

Dustin, your meal was really depressing. The word "microwave" should not be present... :)

Mine:

-- Twice baked potatoes with a ton of cheese and butter
--Cream of potato soup with wild rice with lots of bread and butter for dipping
-- Roasted Chicken with stuffing and corn.
-- Shrimp scampi with rice
-- Tortellini Carbonera
-- Cinnamon rolls and chocolate lava cake for dessert.

deep fried baby
jesus sprouts
butterscotch hand rolled chicken taints

In-n-out 3x3 Plain (Meat, Cheese, Bun)
Papa John's Pizza, Cheese
Liter of Dr. Pepper

I'd be a bloated corpse

My last meal with be fried chicken cooked by either Paula Dean or Emeril.

20 wings from The Chicken or the Egg in LBI; 10 killer beesting, 10 teriyaki
a three pound lobster, broiled
cajun fries
slice of key lime pie
6 pack of Blue Moon

light me up, executioner man!

MD 40/40
I'd rather not remember the sound of the switch flipping. Also, they'd have to drag me to the chair and prop me up in it, which would be hilarious.

Appetizer: pecan crusted goat cheese with baguette
or coconut shrimp. or both.

Entree: lobster, lobster, lobster...with a side of crab legs...i loves me some seafood.

Dessert: crepes

Beverage: long island iced tea or root beer.

ok, my life is complete. all set.

Oh man...I shouldn't do this when I haven't food shopped in a week. I'm doing every course possible.

Appetizer: Tostadas topped with black bean spread, a slice of mango, and a drizzle of wasabi (from Blue Sage, the best vegetarian restaurant in the universe)

Salad: My mother's chicken ceasar...the dressing is so garlicky it could blind a man.

Entree: This is tough...I'd have to go with masamaun chicken curry from my favorite Thai place.

Cheese plate: Suck it bitches, I'm dying and I get a cheese plate. I want the one from Amada, a fantastic Philly tapas place, that had three cheeses with three different spreads (like chocolate hazelnut and garlic dulce de leche) and came with freshly cut baguette and green apple slices. Orgasm.

And dessert: My Aunt Tina's butter cake. It has so many calories that I'd probably die of a heart attack before they could electrocute me.

And I'd have a gallon of red sangria from my favorite place in the Village.

Damn, now that I've gone back and read everyones' entries, I want to change my entree to fried chicken with garlic mashed potatoes and gravy.

Sometimes I wish I was Southern, I can only imagine the amazing fried chicken I'm missing out on being in the Northeast.

A carne seca chimichanga and a bowl (even though it's as big as your head and you never finish it) or that tasty tomato soup from El Charro in Tucson, AZ. Guacamole from Lerua's in Tucson. Homemade fresh mint ice cream for dessert.

Might be dead before they throw the switch...

An appetizer would be calamari, fried and filled with enough flavor to soothe my taste buds.
For the main course, I'd have a pizza pie loaded with cheese and is cooked to perfection, preferably by my father, who's pizza I adore.
For my drink, I'd have the perfect chilled Iced Tea with the right amount of sweetness.
For dessert, first I will have a fruit salad loaded with berries and mangoes and oranges. Then, as many Reese's Peanut Butter Cups as I can handle. To finish it off, I'll have a rich chocolate cake that is rich, tasty and just decadent.
Yes, this to me is the greatest Foodgasm of my life. And damnit, I will appreciate it.

WHITE CASTLE!!!

no joke. I'm sure a lot of people from Detroit would agree with me.

Dang, I forgot the sweet tea. From McAlister's.

This is not going to get me home any sooner to have dinner. and i'm already so damn hungry. PLUS, my cooking is not where I wish it could be... sigh...

APPETIZER: peruvian ceviche. raw fish marinated/cooked in lime juice.

SALAD: greek salad with lots and lots of kalamata olives and crumbled aged feta cheese... and probably some grape leaves (even if i did have some for lunch today from rumi in dc...yummmm)

SOUP: Either tom yum soup or pariwella. seafood in some type of red tomato-oniony broth.

MAIN COURSE: back to seafood. probably paella. or pescado a lo macho with rice slices of ripe avocado. again, peruvian style. because peruvian food is soooo good. I also wouldn't mind some pad thai smothered in crushed peanuts.

DESSERT: rice pudding with coconut shavings and cinnamon. or a realllly thick, but milky, milkshake.

GOD. I'm so fucking hungry now.

Appetizer:
Calamari - with lots of salt and lemon juice
a HUGE cheese platter, complete with olives, nuts, crackers & seasonal fruit
a hearty bowl of clam chowder
my bf's AMAZING Ceasar Salad (So much garlic it's spicy - SO GOOD)
Veggie Samosa

Seafood:
Butter cream crab from my fav chinese restaurant
Salmon nigiri
Basil steamed halibut
my bf's garlic & dill stuffed whitefish (must be fresh)

Garlic mashed potatoes
Corn on the Cob (LOTS of butter)
soysauce seared zucchini
Naan
Jasmine Rice

Drink:
HUGE Strawberry Daquiri
bottle of Wolfblass Chardonnay
Apple Juice

Dessert:
my bf's raspberry cheesecake w/LOTS of whipped cream
Mango Pudding
my friend Lee's pumpkin cheesecake

god i'm hungry....

Appetizer: Stuffed grape leaves (dolmas) with a lemony yogurt dipping sauce and a bag of Tostitos tortilla chips with the "hint of lime". I love those fuckers.

Salad: A Caesar salad. A REAL Caesar, with a fresh raw egg and everything.

Dinner: An entire pan of spanakopita. With extra feta and phyllo. Then a side of fresh homemade pasta in a four cheese (fontina, parmesan, gorgonzola and mozzarella) cheese sauce). Screw Dr. Atkins.

Dessert: One whole huckleberry pie.

To drink throughout the meal: One bottle of pinot noir and several mojitos. And a couple glasses of milk with the pie.

As for Top Chef, I predict that Howie's packing his knives on this week's show.

Since calories obviously don't count as you're marching to your death, I'd start with steamed pork buns and Carl crunchies (light salt flavor - sooo good) and some cream breads.

For the main part of the meal, I'd go for my mom's Swedish meatballs and rice with corn on the cob, served alongside a vegan roll and a serving of tako karaage from Sushi Eye.

As for dessert, I'd want a deep fried Snickers bar, some of mom's Watergate salad, various mochi, green tea tempura ice cream from Sushi Eye (it's served with fried tempura battered strawberries and banana pieces - insanely delicious), Ben & Jerry's Wavy Gravy - discontinued,m but I'd make them make me a batch, and finally, black sesame and strawberry Pocky.

Obviously, I'm being executed for the grievous sin of gluttony...

Forgot to add that I'd be washing this all down with gallons of ice cold birch beer - the clear stuff from Stop N' Shop that my grandma always got for us, not that bizzare caramel colored crap that you find west of the Mississippi.

Cous Cous mixed with cucumbers and tomato, and a fine balsamic and a little olive oil.
Fresh buffalo mozzarella, a little pepper, baslamic and salt.
2 slices of applewood smoked bacon with one over medium egg and rye toast for desert.

Appetizer:
Eddamame
Shrimp Tempura Roll
Spider Roll, no avocado

Soup: Lobster Bisque

Salad: Feast From the East Chinese Chicken Salad

Main Course: Mom's Thanksgiving Dressing with Giblet Gravy, Sisters Mac & Cheese, My Sweet Potato Soufflee

Dessert: Strawberry Shortcake

I think I gained 5 pounds just thinking about all that food!

My last dinner, and because I can have unlimited amounts of whatever I want, I'm having....

Starter: Dolmades with garlicky tzatziki, paneer mekhani (Indian cottage cheese in a tomato butter) and butter naan from Haweli in Edmonton. A plate of har gau (shrimp dumplings).

Entrée: Medium roast beef, mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, GRAVY, steamed broccoli with Canadian cheddar cheese sauce, perfectly grilled New York strip steak with a big bowl of white rice with Japanese Village's creamy sesame sauce, kai-lan stirfried with garlic and soy sauce, grilled zucchini with parmesan cheese.

Dessert: A GINORMOUS "Oh my God, Caramel" Brownie with vanilla icecream. A strawberry icecream cone. A big slice of my mother's Tin Roof Pie.

Drinks: Red sangria with red grapes and nectarines, Lifeboat tea with skim milk, strawberry lemonade from Red Robin.

And after that, they wouldn't need to execute me, since I'd have exploded!!! Plus they couldn't really anyways, since I live in Canada, and I'd only have gotten Life for whatever I'd done.

OMG pinkcheese! I thought my mom was the only one who made watergate salad. The easiest "salad" to make in the whole world.

Holy shit, am I really the only Marylander in here? Really?!? Fine, here goes:

Appetizer: Minature (blue) crab cakes (must be made by someone from Maryland, it's not the same in any other state) served with plenty of lemon slices and tartar sauce

First course: Steamed whole blue crabs absolutely CAKED in old bay seasoning with a side of watermelon and fresh corn on the cob.

Second course: Crab imperial with a whole loaf of french bread to eat it on. And maybe a salad on the side, salad is completely optional but preferred.

Drink: Long Island iced teas or a good summer beer, nothing else drinks with blue crab, especially not steamed ones

Dessert: Chocolate cake with a giant scoop of real vanilla ice cream and a milkshake from the home made ice cream place near where I live.

Bonus is that it would take me a couple HOURS to take down that meal (crab is heavy, y'all). I'm going out drunk and spicy.

Let my island native ass weigh in on this extremely important last-foodstuffs-ever poll right quick:

*plate lunch from the Diner on O'ahu with kahlua pig, pork lau lau, spareribs and chicken katsu. No rice, double macaroni salad.

*saimen from one of the many, many, noodle houses in Waipahu/Aiea, preferably with fish cake, hot peppers and a few won tons.

*fried SPAM with eggs over rice and lots of soyu. you mainlanders have no idea what you're missing, i tell you!

*haupia (firm coconut pudding) and chocolate dobash cake

And, to wash that all down, a six pack of Woodchuck's dark and dry apple cider.

I'm ready. It's on!

I'd have to have some spinach artichoke dip. Not served damned corn chips either. I like pita chips.

Since it's my last meal, I won't be cooking. Therefore, some of my favorite foods won't be allowed because I can't trust others to make them correctly. That makes things tough.

I need some garlic/parmesan mashed potatoes, shrimp cocktail, broccoli cheese casserole, and fried apples. I know these don't really go together, but I'm never one to care.

Some pinot grigio to drink.

Some sort of Oreo Pie or White Cupcakes with White Icing (it's a comfort food from childhood).

Damn, I'm so hungry now.

My grandmother's hot chicken salad and her lard rolls (yep, LARD rolls) with lots and lots of butter. My mom's homemade mac and cheese. And hot peach cobbler (my recipe) with vanilla ice cream. And a big old frozen margarita with lots of salt.

a nice big medium rare steak...

baked potato, salad with bleu cheese...

and a cool pint of Guinness!

katy - Watergate is the *only* "salad" that should be allowed on diet plans, IMHO! ;-)

Manny said: "Well, since I'm going to Hell for making fun of retarded kids and being pro choice, let's kick this pig:"

See you there, Manny. I have seats in that section, too.

We'll start with vegetable samosas straight from the street vendors. Nothing from a fancy restaurant, I want the deep-fried, wonderful ones you only get from some hole-in-the-wall place.

Then I want a baked apple stuffed with brie.

I want the chicken and avocado soup from Frontera Tex-Mex.

And I'll have a whole grilled Vidalia onion, as well.

Homemade strawberry shortcake for dessert.

I'll wash it down with the mojitos they make at Cheesecake Factory, and a bottle of Mirassou Chardonnay.

I can't believe I missed most of this diversion. I'll just say that since it's incredibly hard to choose between my favorite Italian, favorite seafood, and favorite steak restaurants, I'll just go with

1. as many Skyline Chili Dogs as I can eat (the real thing, with the mustard put on with a wooden stick)

2. Kopparberg pear cider and frozen vodka shots (two of the best things about Finland),

3.a raspberry-almond tart from The Ravioli Shop in Rochester, NY, and

4. my mother's tapioca pudding.

I'm going with the Holy Trinity of delicious cuisine: Greek/Middle Eastern, Indian...and, well, chocolate is the third. Because I'm a woman.

For the meze (appetizer):

*kalamata olives and pita bread with hoummus, sweet potato skordalia, and my favorite dip from Iran--yoghurt with cucumber and sultanas
*Aush (Aghan soup)

Main course:

*Chana Masala (chick peas), madras lentils, and vegetable curry on a steaming bed of fluffy brown basmati rice
*garlic naan (extra garlic! fuck, i want an entire head roasted, and then i'll breathe in my executioner's face)

Dessert:

*mint chocolate chip ice cream with hot fudge
*a whole bar of the darkest chocolate imaginable

Beverages:

*Maneschewitz wine, concord grape (none of that blackberry crap!)
*fruit smoothie from Jamba Juice or Robeks, preferably passion fruit or pomegranate

Oh, and I almost forgot, for before the meal:

*Four grams of marijuana

Maylai: Hey! I KNEW a fellow native had to post their last meal. I'm not a huge fan of Hawaiian food but I still like it from time to time. I'm also gonna make a nice combo of sugary items since I'm a diabetic.

App:
Garlic naan, extra garlic
Grilled bread w/ olive oil/balsamic vinegar, risotto balls from North Bondi Italian Food.
Pita w/ hummus and tzatziki
Dolmadakia (stuffed grape leaves)

Main:
Kalua pig, NO CABBAGE.
Gnocchi from Town.
pumpkin soup from The Soup Kitchen in Auckland
Handmade pasta with garlic and oil and TONS of parmesan

Drink:
Iced tea with real sugar, real coke (no more diet for me, I'll have a diabetic seizure before I actually die) and a huge margarita

Dessert:
kulolo (thick taro pudding). I could eat that stuff all day. and a bowl of poi WITH sugar, thanks.
Ice cream, and more ice cream. cookie dough or plain chocolate.
French toast w/ loooots of maple syrup, vanilla ice cream and strawberries.
Crepes filled with Nutella, with more ice cream
Chocolate-Hazelnut gelato from that place next to the Sydney Opera House.

And I'll have died before they nuked my brains out. Ta da!

Okay, I'll bite (so to speak...)

What's "Watergate" salad?

Never heard of that one.

Where's all the Chicagoans? No love for real hot dogs?

Make mine Portillo's. Let's live (okay, die) extravagantly and throw in a Maxwell Street Polish (Sausage) as well. Some mac 'n cheese (don't mix the cheese powder in too good, keep it powdery and 'I gotta eat in the next 2 minutes!' style).

To hell with the fruits and vegetables (here you go, Manny, you can have mine!). 6-12 KFC biscuits.

A gallon or so of el cheapo. Anyone spending more than $8 on a jug of whatever-flavor-of-Rossi-is-on-sale-this-week is getting ripped off....

Throw in some chocolate cake, ice cream of some sort (by the time I'm seeing the bottom of the first jug, I ain't gonna CARE where the sweets came from).

Hit the switch and it's all gonna be Baked Alaska Flambe.

mmmm....so hungry now!
My dinner would be: Perfect cut of steak, very rare with demiglasse on it. Asparagus and baby potatos. Appetizer would be she crab soup. (btw Rachel try the she crab at Keegans: believe it or not it's FANTASTIC!)
Bread with truffle butter. YUM!
Desert would be my moms homemade chocolate mearangue pie. Home made pudding that is the most rocking in the world!!!!
As for drinks - half and halfs. Guiness and Harp and keep em coming. They would def. have to use a wheelbarrow or something to get me to the chair!!!

Well, being from Australia, I'd have to go for a giant slab of dead cow, probably. Medium rare Hell, make it a surf and turf so chuck prawns on top and cover it in creamy garlic sauce. Served with chips (none of this 'fries' business) and...well, to be multicultural, a huge plate of wilted bok-choy with garlic...mmm...

Dessert? something involving lots of chocolate and cream...and maybe raspberries.

Beverage: Seeing as it's steak I guess a nice Barossa Shiraz...the expensive stuff...or just loads of coke.

Oh man. Can i just say i live for my evening meals. There's nothing like the comfort of good food when you're hungry, feel like it or just damn near want to eat something.

Meal- Steak (well done by Angus steakhouse or Harvester) with them fat, a little bit oily chips with salad in vinegar dressing with big fat juicy prawns. Man...I'm drolling at my desk.

Dessert- Haagen Das Bailey Ice Cream. I know I won't be allowed alchohol so I'll damn near go drank on ice cream.

Mate i've got three hours to go before lunch...

This is crazy, my partner just asked me this like two days ago. This is what I told her;
Indian buffet/chicago's deep dish pizza with chocolate,oatmeal,raisin,peanut butter cookies and to drink I would have shots of tequila and a couple of glasses of merlot.

bjs1109 - Watergate salad (at least the way my mom makes it) has mixed fruit cocktail (no cherries), miniature marshmallows, loads of whipped cream, and I think pistashio pudding mix and mixed together. I'm not to clear on it, since I've never made it myself, but it's the ultimate summer picnic dessert of my childhood.

I'm awfully surprised at all of the respondees that can actually pick a meal. Here's the thing: just like what I wear everyday, the meals I choose are planned according to what I'm in the mood for. Therefore, I really couldn't choose an all-time last meal menu, because when the time comes- who knows? I'd probably have a sudden urge for cheap greasy pizza, instead of the filet mignon that I would have originally guessed. It is entirely, and extremely subjective to mood. Am I seriously the only one like that...?!

I'm late on this, but I had to respond to this one. I'm not picky about specifics... more like an omikase prepared by my favorite chefs and using my favorite ingredients:

amuse: roasted dates wrapped in bacon, maybe marinated in vanilla and blood orange?
App: containing fois gras and prepared by Chef Wylie Dufresne
Entree: Kobe beef, rare-medium rare, prepared by Chef Tom Colicchio
Dessert: prepared by Gordon Ramsey

and...
a glass of aged single malt scotch, neat.

that'll do just fine, I think.

Hahahaha, k, you did NOT just pick something from the Saucer! I'm from the Falls myself... since when do they serve anything other than the 99-cent breakfast?! ;)

An In & Out Double-Double with Cheese -- oh yeah, and my wife.

"An In & Out Double-Double with Cheese -- oh yeah, and my wife."

I have no Pajiba authority (obviously), but I think this comment wins. Hands down.

And as for someone who said that the food you eat depends on your mood--I'm the same way, but I could almost never turn down Italian food and chocolate. Or ice cream. Or dragon rolls. Mmmmm.

and I am the very happy wife of Chez...

thank you, baby. :)

Oh boy, I have no idea what I would really decide, but it's summer, so for now let's go with lots of grilled stuff:

appetizer: grilled asparagus drizzled lightly with olive oil, salt and freshly ground pepper and
grilled corn on the cob slathered with butter

main course: grilled four cheese pizza: mozzarella, asiago and parmesan cheeses along with a little bit of a good quality bleu cheese and some roasted red peppers or sundried tomatoes on top. (if you've never had grilled pizza, you should. it's fabulously delicious)
The big decision here is whether I would stick to my vegetarianess or since it's my last meal, go out with some bbq chicken...too close to call, for now let's just stick with the pizza and some homemade Mac n' Cheese

beverage: a quality ginger brew like Reed's

Dessert: French Toast from Victory's Banner and a slice of lemon meringue pie (or peach cobbler? I can't decide!)

Shit, guys.

There's so many things I'd love to fucking eat, but I don't think I'd be able to hold anything down.

Most of that food sounds amazing, though.

That's easy, I've always had just one favorite meal. Willow's chicken pot pie with no vegetables, white rice(covered in the pie sauce), egg noodles(also covered in the pie sauce), a baked potato with cheese and bacon bits, and corn bread. And I wash it down with a big glass of milk. And for desert it would have to be a big bowl of my favorite ice cream, Batter Up from Newport Creamery: peanut butter ice cream with caramel swirls and chocolate covered peanuts.

"Oh, and I almost forgot:

*For before the meal, 4 grams of marijuana."

Outstanding, Diana! I had a very similar thought. Sort of like an amuse bouche, no? You also may have come up with the solution for all these posters who claim they're going to explode before they ever reach the chair - smoke four grams of weed and not only will you actually be able to eat all that food, you'll never notice when your stomach implodes.

My last meal (mostly mom-prepared dishes):

Mom's caesar salad - with raw egg, huge shards of salty Romano cheese and lots of cracked black pepper.

Mom's spaghetti amatriciana - a light, salty/sweet tomato-based sauce with sauteed onions and hunks of bacon.

A medium-rare slab of prime rib with garlic mashed potatoes, fried onion bits and sauteed spinach.

My mom's apple pie - super flaky salty and sweet crust with real sliced apples, none of that canned pie filling crap.

All of that then washed down with one or two (or seven) Kir Royales. Deelish!

I have no idea where this combination of food came from, but it's been my favorite for as long as I can remember. Try it, you might like it!
Barbequed Pork Chops (like 1 1/2" thick)
Mashed Potatoes
Creamed Corm (must be homemade - not from a can), served ON TOP of the potatoes
Mojitos abondonza for drinks
Graeters Buckeye Blitz ice cream (chocolate ice cream with peanut butter cookie dough and chocolate chunks. Graeters is a local Cincinnati brand, with more butterfat than you should eat in an entire year) with hot fudge sauce.

Fresh pineapple, watermelon, oranges

I think I need to take a trip to the kitchen right now.

I would just want pretty much everything on the Desert menu from Enoteca Cucina here in Adelaide, Australia (we have a nice little le Cordon Bleu school here and we have more restaurants per capita than any other city in the world!)

My last desert there consisted of lavender pannacotta with a shortbread and oven roasted rhubarb and a raspberry sauce.

For a main - pretty much any fresh SA seafood dish from Sammys on the Marina. Or if I'm feeling like a pasta then entree serve of of Spirali Mondiali (chicken in a special rosa sauce) from Cafe Mondiali. I have known only one person to actually eat a whole main serve of pasta from Mondi's as they are huge.
