    This kinda happened to me.

    I got a promotion at work and had to go out of town for training. While out of town I got $100/day for food.

    I went to Atlanta and had the cheapest lunch and the free hotel breakfast so I could go to expensive restaurants at night.

    I don’t know much about cooking and chefs, but I like Richard Blaise from top chef was cool. I ate at his restaurant, I was the only one there and I got to meet him for a photo.

        He’s great! Everyone who watches the show loves him.

        My sister met Fabio once, he went to promote a restaurant that he is part owner of and she lives near it.

    This is an obnoxious answer, but Gordon Ramsay yells so much about everyone else getting Beef Wellington wrong, I’d like to have his Beef Wellington, but made by him under the exact same conditions where the contestants got it wrong, with no special privileges.

    honestly i don’t care for fancy food, just give some some grandma’s home cooking and i’ll be happier than any pro chef could make me.

    A blooming onion, with a garlic sauce dip to start, battered catfish with fresh lemon juice, and waffle fries with a habañero garlic sauce for dipping as a main, and funnel cake with fresh raspberry sauce for dessert.

    We don’t deep fry at home at all, so that’s the theme of my order.

    The chicken tenderloins, breaded and lightly fried. Served with a side of sharp Dijon with a little honey for balance.

    “Oh my God. Turkey. With… pillowy mounds of mashed po-ta-toes, Butter-drenched dressing…And tiny onions! Swimming in a sea of cream sauce.”

    Dealer’s choice as long as they like it and I’ve not had it before. I’d rather leave it to the chef’s expertise.
