Food Poll

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

1. Favorite kind of soup? - I like thicker soups. Veggie tortilla soup or black bean.

2. Favorite kind of sandwich? - anything with avocado, yum.

3. Most expensive/decadent thing you ever ate? - maybe white truffles? I think they were $20 a gram. It was part of a very expensive 8 course dinner with wine pairings we had on HM. That meal cost as much as our wedding cake.

4. Have you ever killed/butchered an animal? - fish, as a kid.

5. Bonus Q for those who travel: name your favorite foreign things you have tried and tell us all about them. - i'm kind of boring, because I don't eat meat, but Doner Kebab in Germany, for sure. Pita, garlic sauce, spicy sauce, tomato salad, cabbage salad, then usually shwarma, but I'd get either feta or falafel. Also, I had some good stuff in the UK (surprisingly). I had an awesome toasted cheese and carmelized onion sandwich. And as a vegetarian sandwich, instead of portobello mushrooms, like they use int he US a lot, they use haloumi cheese a lot, which can be fried and doesn't really melt. It's cool. It's salty, but thick. The texture is like chewy mozzarella, but the taste is like a mild feta.

[QUOTE]Bisque refers to having a puree of the shells in it, I think. Maybe I'm thinking of something else.

<div>Yes you are right, only not pureed, just cooked then strained out. But it's referring to soup made from shells.</div>

Soup: Chicken Corn Soup
Sandwich: Philly cheese steak, preferable from philly - with provalogne, peppers, and onions, no cheese wiz
Most Expensive: FI took me to Texas De Brazil. $50 a plate at this brazilian steak house and they brought all sorts of meat out to you on swords - yes swords. And their side dish and salad bar was to die for itself. I was eating filet wrapped in bacon, parmesean pork, the best roast beef ever, and on and on and on all in one night. If you're ever in Memphis you really need to go - its soooo worth it.
Oh, and I'm a sucker for anything with crab or lobster or that is "imperial"
Butcher: Yes, my family had done it for its lively hood since my grandparents were kids. Winter in our family is called Butchering Season and I was one of those kids who did meat judging in FFA (like what Bobby Hill does on the series finale of King of the Hill).
Travel type foods: Molecajete (sp?) in central Mexico. They take this lava rock bowl, heat it in the oven til its cherry red, take it out and drop chorizo, a bunch of veggies and cactus in it. The bowl is so hot it cooks the food by itself. It puts those Chili's sizzler skillet things to shame.
I also had orange chicken from some hole in the wall in a bad part of town in Kingston Jamaica. Not really exotic, and I could have been eating cat, but it was DELICIOUS!

Fogo De Chao!?!  Nom nom nom. 

edit:  nevermind.  You said it was Texas De Brazil.  It sounds identical to Fogo and probably similarly wonderful.
