I'd spend the next week in Lima, Peru, at the Alfresco restaurant, the city's most often acclaimed cevicheria, where I'd have the house special ceviche' every day for lunch, a dish to have as your last meal in life, and a different ceviche' for dinner.

Then back to Tokyo for a week, and so on ....... Live to eat, folks!!!
My mother accused me of living to eat 50 years ago and nothing has changed.

I would love to go to Italy. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to trying different foods, but I don't think I'd have any problems at all in Italy. I love Italian food!

Dumb question...I love Sicilian pizza, but how exactly is it served fried? Sounds yummy.

Wow! Just reading what ya'll have posted is wayyyy outside of my food experience! I guess you could call me "culinarily disadvantaged.

What I would like most is to experience ALL of these wonderful sounding foods and places WITH someone knowledgeable to guide me - someone who would help me decide what to order according to my taste.

My mother was one of the best basic cooks in the world. Very basic, very delicious. HOWEVER, she adamantly maintained that margarine tasted exactly the same as butter, and so that was what was always in our house. Boy did I LOVE IT when we went out to restaurants and I could get BUTTER!!!!! YUMMMMMMM

I have decided not to skip the lunch on the way to KC, MO. I want a stop over for a whole hog BBQ anywhere in rural Mo or AR. We can hold the dinner at the Golden Ox for a couple of extra hours. Hey if the tab is on you I want to maximize my benefits. I can fast a few days following my excursion.

Well I figured if you were going to be a couple I would have to pose as your daughter . The Harem idea does not appeal to me in the slightest I have to say !

That's why I said adopted daughter as I am sure both you are I are just young blossoms !
I promise I won't call you Mommy or make you take me to Disneyworld.
