No.
@RobLawrence I don't care for waffles or pancakes. Ice cream goes on Angel Food Cake, among other things.
Some of them..and variations of others..
The rest I will order for my final pre-execution meal...they may have to give me a stay of execution..or they may dispense with the execution to allow nature to take its course via acute coronary disease..???
I feel sure that a little of what you like in moderation is no bad thing..I like your taste in foods .
Incidentally one of my favourites is a very good quality meat Ravioli..with an equally good red wine.
I haven't tried Lobster Ravioli..but it sounds great.
I have a sort of diary..its a leather bound notepad in which I jot down interesting ideas and thoughts..tips and various other little gems of solid advice..bucket lists etc..its a minajari and definition of the eclectic. I have jotted down Lobster Ravioli in a vodka sauce..on the same page as New England Lobster & Chowder. Lobster Rolls.
Mutton was a popular meat that your ancestors over here may also have been weaned on...however lamb is abundant here..and mutton which many consider tastier is nigh on impossible to source at a supermarket or even a butcher's shop..only a handful of specialist butcher's sell it unfortunately. Mutton stew is off the menu here I'm afraid. Silly isn't it?
I have eaten 20..I know this because..my wife decided she was feeling a little off..and had ordered Angus beef Ravioli in a white sauce..as I had..I decided I would have hers because it was so good....cheeky but what the hell..we'd paid for it...
You have a Royal ally across the Irish Sea..HRH Charles Prince of Wales..and next in line to the British Throne is a huge fan of Mutton..so food snobs are looking at Mutton again..its good enough for royalty..

Ah, Nathan's hot dogs... I remember driving into Brooklyn just for those. And don't forget their amazing fries, piled high in a cup speared together by a tiny fork, fresh out of decades-old deep fryers that we used to joke had 30 years of grease coating them... And really amazing corned beef from a Jewish deli, nothing compares to Katz's on Houston Street (side note: remember the famous "I'll have what she's having" scene from "When Harry Met Sally"? Shot right there -- there's even a sign indicating which table).
Corned beef on rye from a good Jewish deli!!! ?
@RobLawrence
I'm a total mustard slut. ?

@RobLawrence Just because I have eaten all those things, doesn't mean I ALWAYS eat those things. I actually eat pretty healthy. But I'll try anything once.
If I could actually eat food like that, it'd be great!
Yes, to all, except the stuff having nuts or peanut butter as a component.
And no to the mutton. Yuck to mutton.
@RobLawrence Nope. Not even a little bit.
Iv've pretty opened about food, being a chef and all. But Ihave to say that a lot of stuff I've tried has been awefull. but every now and again, I've tried a dish or two that really surprised me. I love learning something new, or something I never thought of.
