If I actually believed in the End of the World and had planned for it my last meal on earth would be at one of my favourite restaurants with Hubby by my side, all dressed up the the Nines. I would not want to disappear for good looking like a frump would I !!!
The meal would probably look something like this ( I would have fasted a day in advance to truly enjoy the repast) :
Spider Crab with home made lemon Mayo
Scottish hand dived Bay Scallops, fresh and still with their corals on, with black pudding, and cauliflower puree or foam
A platter of fresh Scottish seafood comprising of Oysters ( little shallot vinegar on the side), Langoustines and King Prawns ( with a little lemon mayo) and Mussels ( smoked and cooked)
Grapefuit sorbet as palate cleanser
Grass Fed Fillet steak ( aged for at least 28 days, Argentinian or from Alberta) served blue, with a spiced poached pear and red wine reduction OR Bearnaise, a fricassee of Wild Mushrooms ( Ceps, Girolles,Chanterelles) with Parsley and garlic, and Gratin Dauphinois
Selection of Sashimi
Selection of Artisan Breads, Cheeses and proper real sea salt butter
Grand-Marnier Souffle
One Chocolate Truffle
Die happy with big smile on my face as the Earth crumbles around me !!
As I have sadly not planned for it it is looking more like Spiced Carrot and Ginger Soup if tomorrow truly is the end of the world. And a sliver of the Lindt Chocolate Bear Hubby bought me last week.... Still not too bad !
Med Rare Peidmontese two inch T-bone cooked tuscan style over oldvine grapewood. Fresh California Coast Dungeness crab cakes. Tomales Bay oysters on the halfshell freshly harvested that morning. A Black and Tan made with Guinness Stout and Anchor Steam.
Glass of 40yr Glennfiddich Whisky and a Cohiba 1966 for dessert.
Hmmm...well, first off I'd want at least 2-3 shots of grey goose or silver patron! Also, like Mooseketeer said, I'd want to be dressed to the nines. I think I'd want lobster tails with loads of butter, special sushi rolls, prime rib, enchiladas, mac and cheese, seafood gratin...yeah, I think I'd probably pig out at that point.
I know this is a hypothetical question, but does anyone really think that if the world were ending the people who work at restaurants would continue to show up to do their jobs? You're out living it up or (more likely) having sex with the most amazing person you can find, but somehow they're still going to be there bringing you your burgers and bussing your table?
