How about a 2" slice of prime rib surrounded with roasted potatoes, grilled asparagus and Bay of Fundy scallops with a bernaise sauce. Yorkshire pudding is a definate must. This is to be savoured with a bottle of Folonari Valpollicella.
If you have room after that I recommend a piece of tiramisu accompanied by a snifter of Chivas Regal.

I have to travel from Illinois to California - but a double cheeseburger combo from "In-N-Out" Burgers is a taste treat like no other!!!
Ron I can't wait to meet you. We love picking the jelly out of Maurice Lennel star cookies. Then we agree that Franksville foot long cheddar dogs are great. Now you talkin' In-N-Out Burgers?? My friend when I'm in California I only have my eyes on two things and one happens to be their burgers.

with 6 years of training, when I was much younger, in French and Italian cuisine, my wife eats pretty dang good when I cook(most of the time). She moved up here from Texas and is now introducing me to some southern cookin. But when it’s time to treat myself, I just gotta have a 2lb New Yorker with asperagus and garlic butter, baked potato and sour cream, washed down with copious amounts of cold, pure water.

I like Lumpia and Tamarind soup polished off with Habenyaro peppers and Monterary jack cheese melted on a trisket.
And for the finally I like a good Spumoni ice cream.

I have not had it in years either Joseph.
But in my younger days you could pick them off the rocks near my parents home. As I got older you had to go out to the Santa Barbara Channel Islands to get them, now also closed to Abalone fishing. I believe you can still free dive for them north of San Francisco.

I keep telling myself I will make the trip someday.
Joseph when was the last time you had a Pismo clam?
