What do you like to eat? Drink? Smoke? Swill? :D

I love food. It shows on my hips. I love sushi (the food of the gods). At the moment I\'m very into coconut pinapple juice. Thin Mints are the cookie of the gods. I don\'t drink much but I liked the cider I had in England. Ooooo!!! and the best candy in the world is treacle toffee. Never had it (or anything treacle) until I went to London. I like it better than chocolate (but not by much). I love cherry tomatos and sugar snap peas and really really good balsamic vinegar.

What do you love to consume?

Ok Serious Chocoholic Here. (Hence the waist line)
But love good Indian Food, ditto Chinese, Thai.
English resteraunt food has to be of really good quality for me to enjoy it as Fran is a far better cook.
Can\'t be bothered by these celebrity style, pay How Much for something that is all show and no substance places.
Like an occasional Pizza, not often.

Very picky about coffee and tea.
Near to work I use the Costa Coffee in Birkenheads Waterstones bookshop, at least once a week (They know my usual order):rolleyes:
Local to home I much prefer a Non franchise coffee shop Rhode Island Coffee where Fran & I can be found most Saturday mornings.
Alchohol, used to drink more than I do now. An occasional Bottle of White wine, sometimes a bottle of Leffe (Belgian Beer), but it\'s become more of a rarity than a common place occurrance.

My favourite meals are either chorizo in a tomato & white wine sauce with crème-fraiche, or fragrant chicken (or rabbit) in puy lentils and crème-fraiche. I like crème-fraiche! Actually, I’m into most slow-cooked food, whether meatballs, cassoulet, casserole, bolognese, chilli, bourguinon, al forno stuff...and a good old-fashioned bangers and mash, toad in the hole, roast, whatever. And red lentils. I make a Bolognese out of them and Shel says it’s her favourite dish.

I love tiramisu though I prefer Amaretti biscuits to the sponge, and add Kahlua to the mascarpone. It’s the best. And freakinacage, that Toblerone Mousse was a winner. Made my own since, with dark chocolate and rum. It was even nicer! I’m making a gooey, rich chocolate cake on Saturday, as having some guests over. Dense and small, ideal with a bit of vanilla ice-cream.

Drinky-wise, I love a bit of proper beer and I’m a big wine fan. I also love rum, whisky, port and brandy. I can feel gout coming on even talking about it!

I love fish and seafood. I love mediterranean cooking (mostly Italian, but also Spanish and southern French). I make a mean risotto with fresh herbs and grilled scallops. :drool: I also eat a lot of vegetarian food and there\'s a lot of delicious stuff you can do if you learn a bit more about it.

Drink wise... I love beer (ales, stouts, porters, bitters, weißbiers, etc... not much for lager, though) and wine and whisky and absinth and port, etc. Coffee, tea... milk... Anything that isn\'t too sweet.

At the moment potatoes and carrots with butter. Cheap, quick and mega filling. (Heavy though)

Smoke wise, Mexican Haze seems to be a favorite.

Peace and love...

Food: I\'m big on anything that could be classified as \"comfort food\" (fried chicken, chicken fried steak, meatloaf -- all the rich stuff that\'s more likely to kill you.) As a category, that\'s my favorite food.

Specifically though, nothing beats a nice, thick Ribeye steak with a steamed artichoke on the side and a loaded baked potato. :drool:

My second hobby is cooking outside, so I love anything grilled and/or barbequed. In fact, a couple years back I won a blue ribbon at one of the largest barbeque cook-offs in the US by cooking a turtle cheesecake on a smoker pit. lol

Drink: Again, I\'m going to go stereotypical Southern here and say nothing tops a nice tall glass of sweet iced tea for me. That said, Stuart\'s Orange and Cream soda comes pretty close. I\'m also a pretty big Starbucks fan.

I know, I know.

Alcohol: Almost never drink. (Haven\'t had a sip since college about 10 years ago :eek: ) But about the only thing I like is Kahlua.

Don\'t smoke. Love the smell of pipe smoke though!

I love Japanese Food. Not Sushi though, I hate sour rice, but home-made stuff:
Donburi (a ricebowl with something on top, e.g. chicken and egg, beef and onion etc.),
Nikujaga (beef stew with potato, onion and carrot),
Nikuman (steamed yeast bun filled with minced meat and cabbage),
Gyoza (noodle dough filled with minced meat and cabbage),
sweets done with Anko(sweet paste made from red beans) or Matcha(powdered green tea).
And I like baking, especially muffins and cookies.

Food:
Anything with spice. Growing up in So Cal spoiled me rotten with the available choices of well-spiced food. Mexican was the main spicy fare where I grew up, but I also developed a taste for Indian food in college. I actually was known in my Boy Scout troop for my ability to make freeze-dried food palatable, courtesy of my backpacker\'s traveling kit of spices.

Non-alcohol Drink:
Orange Cream soda, taken out of the freezer just as ice crystals form.

Alcohol and Smokes:
I haven\'t drank since college because I don\'t know how to stop. Don\'t smoke either, mostly because I\'m assuming I would have the same problem.

Chocolate, topped with chocolate in a chocolate sauce, sprinkled in chocolate...

Mint chocolate.

Real ales, barefoot (an Aussie beer with hint of lemon/lime).

Chocolate.

Really I like good food no matter what it is, although I have trouble with tentacles...

Hehe foodwise im pretty basic, Beans and bacon (bacon being the best food ever... not good for you, but the taste!)

And my alltime fave is Pölsa, a traditional swedish dish, like haggis... not to be confused with the danish Pölse which is sausage... And i cant stand that! Other then that i like pizza, hamburgers just about all foods, except sausage, some sausages are good, but mostly not so good.

And I\'m addicted to nicotine, but I dont smoke, caffine is awesome too! Coca cola and coffe is great stuff, really! And my ethanol intake consists mainly of white wine and beer! Never really cared for red wine, dont know why... The odd Jägermeister gets in here and there, perhaps some screwdrivers and whiskey.
The best way of drinking is sitting in Band practice drinking white wine, having a good time, listening, playing and composing music with good friends!

I\'d think Fried Chicken is my favorite meal.

Not much of a drinker anymore. I\'ve seem to have lost the taste for beer and such.

Coffee or milk.

I love a good, well flavoured (veggie) risotto, a not too hot Indian is also good. Aubergines cooked properly are delicious, but I can\'t get them like it at home.

I think sweet potatos are my fav food at the moment though.

So sad the dairy is getting to me more and more. I really can\'t eat cheese, and it saddens me. Ice-cream and chocolate are also on the definitely banned list.

I like Costa Coffee\'s soya latte - and they don\'t charge extra for soya milk. :)

Never smoked. Like to drink cocktails and cider - but together is a bad combination. Sadly, can\'t drink any more because of extreme hangovers. (1 drink = feeling bad for 1 week)
Soft drinks nothing beats a fresh fruit smoothie. Yum!

Im a vegetarian so I make up alot of my meals.
Best sandwich in existence:
Rye bread toasted with the sharpest cheddar you can find and Some swiss cheese. Add tomato and onion, mayonaise, wasabi horseradish sauce and some aged balsamic. Amazing sandwich. Just had one now.

Also, I really enjoy cream cheese on crackers with hot garlic salsa.

I\'m a real food person. Whenever I go on trips, the restaurants I went to are always the first thing I recall. For example, when I was in Baltimore going to gamesday, I went to this amazing spanish tapas restaurant where I got homeade potato chips with a tomato garlic dip. So good.....
I also like pizza. A local pizza restaurant has what I think is the best pizza ever. It sounds weird but its won awards so trust me its good!
Red potato pizza- Thick crust white pizza with sour cream, extra sharp cheddar,red potato, chives, and brocolli. You can also get it with bacon, which, I am told is what makes the pizza. It\'s really awesome the way I eat it though.

Drinks: Smoothies, Milkshakes.... Iced coffee- I really love Starbucks frappacinos

There is place near me called \"midland kebabs\", they do pizza too...

Anyway, me and my nextdoor neigbours were sitting there at two in the morning and they were the only place still delieving.

The also happended to be very cheap...

Anyway, long story short, their pizza is amazing (although not good for you...)...

It also tastes even better in the morning when it has been left in the box on the floor overnight...
