Ten simple things I love to order out

Cut and paste this into a Facebook note with your own list, then tag a bunch of friends (go ahead, they like it - that's why they're on Facebook!), so they'll do the same.

Here are the rules: list the top ten things (in no particular order) that you love to order in a restaurant to eat or drink. [Full disclosure: I totally stole this list idea from my girlfriend...]

  • Single malt Scotch (preferably one I've never tried before)
  • Bone-in ribeye (runner-up steak: Fillet Mignon)
  • Chianti (or any other quality red wine)
  • Pad Thai (chicken and/or shrimp, medium spice)
  • Pan-seared sea scallops (seafood in general: very, very good)
  • Greek salad (go light on the dressing and feta, but don't skimp on the beets)
  • Grilled pork cutlet (this takes skill to prepare without making it too dry)
  • Indian food (best to order small plates of a variety of dishes)
  • Omelet (western is the best, and the quality of the cheese is vital)
  • Iced tea (good and strong, no sweetener or lemon)

All of the above prepared gluten-free, of course! There would be some pasta dishes above if I could still eat gluten - not to mention Käsespätzle (German cheese dumplings). (Mmmm... poison...)

My girlfriend's original list. (A little heavy on the gluten, but man these make my mouth water too...)

• French martini... or basically anything with fruit juice & vodka :)
• Sea bass
• Fetuccini Alfredo
• Carrot cake with real cream cheese icing
• Prime rib
• Champagne- the sweet (not dry/brut) stuff
• Freshly baked bread with cold butter
• Shrimp cocktail
• Cheesecake
• Filet mignon, with real Roquefort sauce like we used to make at the Findlay Inn. Daggone that was great stuff!!!
