Special Chateaubriand from Bern's in Tampa. I did have it on a birthday and it was wonderful! With a nice glass of red wine.

My request as a kid were steak rolls, corn, mashed potatoes at my grandmother's house. With a yellow cake and chocolate icing. I would love to have that meal again. Such a nice memory!!

Reading this thread has made me hungry.

Breakfast - Almond croissant and a French vanilla latte

Lunch - Broiled stuffed lobster, steamed clams, corn on the cob, parmesan creamed spinach, and french bread

Dinner - Pan fried dumplings, Peking Duck, fried bananas topped with caramel and vanilla ice cream, and wine

Snack (had to include all my favorites) - Reuben sandwich with Jewish seeded ryebread or Ribeye with Bernaise or bleu cheese sauce and sauteed mushrooms & onions


Now, I am starving! The reality is, I wouldn't even be able to eat half this food in one day, but it is sure nice to think about.

(only bec you don't live here) beer in the sauce....Salt to taste, fresh pepper.
This is what I want. Maybe without the beer.

Plus seafood. Raw oysters. Cioppino or bouillabaise. Salmon.

For dessert: hummingbird cake.

I would start off with an ice cold Chopin martini with a twist and no vermouth as my cocktail.

For an appetizer I would have half a dozen oysters on the half shell and a small beet salad with goat cheese.

My entree would be a surf and turf of a medium rare rib eye with a whole Maine lobster. I would switch to an earthy Cabernet.

Dessert would be a chocolate souflee with a Gran Marnier sauce and a cup of French pressed decaf coffee.

I need to get this. Love that mac n cheese.

My birthday meal includes:

Breakfast - pancakes and extra-crispy bacon, Cuban coffee

Lunch - fried chicken, my Dad's bbq ribs, corn on the cob, iced tea

5:00 Pint of Guinness

Dinner - lobster with extra butter, steak, lasagna, and those bacon-wrapped scallops sound amazing

Nightcap - Scotch rocks (it absorbs fat lol)

After all that I will skip dessert and you can roll me out of there in wheelbarrow.

All, and I mean all of the above minus Cheryl Ladd, unless she's the waitress.

What's on your list, even the NoNo foods...like, for me, I don't eat bottomfeeders...but that day
would have Lobster Bisque, for example and steamed clams, scallops in a perfect
butter/ white wine sauce, a jumbo shrimp cocktail.

Would have to have Brie with this special European bread a place makes and dijon on
the side, with the occasional roasted garlic dalop.

Plus, lots more!

You?
This year both my husband and I had the same thing. We had gone to a recomnded local steak house for mine but really wasn't up for the full monty. We both had kobe beef burgers with sautéed leeks and portobello mushrooms and melted brie. Rich...but amazing. When my hubby's birthday rolled around...he admitted he just wanted to go back for another burger...so we did.
