the ultimate meal

[excelsior-1]

what would be your ideal or ultimate meal? three courses only (excluding drinks)
mine would be:-

starter ... pheasant pate with sesame toast
min course ... chicken kiev, smooth mash potato, brocolli, peas and parsley sauce
dessert ... ice cream banana boat

not very imaginative i know, but it's my dream meal

[woofgang]

starter. a little really good smoked salmon and a glass of champagne
main. Fillet steak rare, a few decent fries, grilled tomato.
dessert. Home made mango ginger icecream.
coffee and a liqueur.

[DTCwordfan]

roasted scallops, black pudding, a jus with a salad of samphire and rocket
Rack of Lamb (rare) with Pommes au Gratin and Frecnh green beans, perhaps a beetroot or parsnip mousse.
A selection of cheeses with brown Irish soda (sugar bread): stilton, roquefort, cendré goats cheese, Vacherin and a good Tomme or Pujbol.

And a bottle of 1966 Chateau le Pin, as to the scallops, a Montrachet 1970.

If I was to have a dessert, my own Pavlova.....

[excelsior-1]

leave the drinks out people. i did say excluding drinks

[snags]

Not as sophisticated as DTC's but can I forgo the starter and main and jump straight to pud which would be Liv Tyler covered in honey.

[jackthehat]

With or without the elf-ears, snags.............or won't you be much interested in her ears? LoL

[joggerjayne]

Fois Gras

Steak Tartare

Vanilla Ice Cream

[cazzz1975]

first course- ribs
main- chicken
dessert- chocolate tools or white mice

[excelsior-1]

jogger. i've never had fois gras, but as a pate lover i'm sure i'd love it

[Prudie]

Must all be perfect of course:
melon and parma ham (avocado with prawn if my 2nd wasn't shellfish)
A whole cold lobster with a seafood sauce and french bread
home made vanilla ice cream with a hot chocolate sauce.

[joggerjayne]

Yes, but not the pate de fois gras ...

Just a lightly seared lump of fois gras.

[ummmm]

Scallops.

Duck breast (pink)

Cheese board with grapes and apples.

[ruthandsam]

Starter: Seafood Cocktail
Main: Beef Wellington
Desert: Creme Brulee

[EcclesCake]

If the seasons don't spoil my fun I'd go for....

English asparagus, served with herb butter.

Steak, frites & bearnaise sauce, green beans, spinach or salad to accompany.

Fresh local raspberries

And a cheeky extra a plate of local cheese with crackers and chutney.

[waterboatman]

Pud. rice pudding with Bailey's

[boxtops]
