biodork Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Fried calamari with lemon and spicy pomodoro sauce, mmmm. Quote
MattPie Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Spinach salad, and then a Wagner Valley Oatmeal Stout while riding the bicycle on a stand. Might have a spoon or two of ice cream. Quote
Weave Posted February 5, 2012 Author Report Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Hit a really funky little gastropub in Geneva called The Red Dove. Highly recommended. I was all over the map with thier food. They had a gussied up filafel that was fantastic. Raw oysters that tasted like they were surely fresh flown in. Instead of chicken wings they were serving duck wings. OMFG. Fantastic. And while downing a few (ok more than just a few) beers we were munching on deep fried chick peas drizzled with kosher salt, chopped parsley, and Tobasco. Absolutely addicting.

Dude,duck wings...thar sounds so friggen good..were they really expensive? What was the meat like..i know the skin was awesome. Â Beer dinne was good, but they had to switch out a few beers. But, the Dubbel with the Ribeye was a standout. First time i have ever had a beer with a steak that i tought was as good or even better than a nice cab. Quote

The skin was nice and crispy and the wings had that typical duck flavor. They were expensive though. $10 got you four wings with a green curry and coconut milk dipping suace. Â Â Steak is a tough match for a beer to stand up to, especially a nice fatty ribeye. I'll have to try a Belgian double paired up. Quote
Eleven Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Real Coca-Cola. The kind made with sugar, and not HFCS. I don't drink soda very often, so when I do, I do it right. Damn, this stuff is good. Quote

nfreeman Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 for the Super Bowl: Â - wings - guacamole and chips - beer (corona and sam adams) - whatever the guests bring Quote
darksabre Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Spent all afternoon shooting guns at the range. Now I got a Heritage Pack of Genesee and some chicken wing dip the room mate made. Gonna go party it up, woop woop! Quote

Â ===== Â Sunday night ... Â Goat roast tonight ... yum yum! Â That's what I miss most about florida other than 74 and sunny all winter......the melting pot of food choices. At the racetrack there would always be good stuff like curried goat for the backside for like $5. There was a blind goat in the barn next to ours and I always wondered how he lasted so long without being lunch. Nasty lil' sob too.....he may have been blind, but he knew where crotch level was in relation to his horns. 1 Quote

I love eating goat and lamb, but I don't think about the deed at all ... I could never do it. I take comfort in the fact that our friends raise them with loving kindness and do the slaughter in as gentle ("halal") a way as possible. Quote
shrader Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 So I was at a friend's for the game last night. I watched them pull some wings out of their oven and I had to immediately leave the room. Quote

But on Superbowl Sunday that gets pretty close to sacriledge. Quote

plenzmd1 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Posted February 6, 2012 Having brick chicken with roasted bruseel sprouts, baby reds and carrots for dinner. Â In terms of wings, first let me say frying is always best. Having said that i do use Alton Browns method of steaming the wings first, letting them rest for at least an hour, then putting in a 450 oven..the steaming gets quite a bit of the fat out of the wing, making the baked wing almost taste fried and nice and crisp..or as close to it as you can get. Â I also loved the smoked wings.. Quote
