Ok this is the situation: you are sleeping in you room, dreaming about a beach in
enly some aliens Predator look like crack in your room. They announce that they are about to kidnap you for experiments on human beings held in their own planet called Vegan69. However they let you have what presumably is your last supper on planet earth; you can have a four course meal plus dessert. You can ask anything you want even something you had long time ago, no worries they’ll recreate this for you with exactly the same flavour (don’t ask how, you know aliens beside being uglier are also always more clever and more developed than humans. And they usually do lots of cool stuff!) of the original. What would you have? I’d panic straight away, too many things I’d like to have. Which starter? Pasta or main? No I’ll have some pasta. Fish or meat? What about cheese! Bloody hell I’m in trouble I can’t decide. No I can’t help it, probably the aliens would shot me after I had taken too long to decide……nothing at the end because for every choice there are hundreds regrets……bastards of aliens they could do at least one fishy, one meaty and one veggie meal. I think it’d be one of the toughest decision ev
er. OK let’s do the aliens less mean then, something like the ones in The Simpson’s. They say before kidnapping you they want experience all the best meal and food you can suggest them. You tell them and they can recreate exactly the same (for the same reason than aliens are more clever and cooler than us!).
That’s better, isn’t it? We have a wider range of action and a little longer to live before we say goodbye to the earth. Now that it sounds nicer what would they be? I mean what would you choose? Would they just be the tastiest dish you ever had, or maybe something linked to some special occasion? Something you have never tried but always heard about. Tough shit!
I’ll have of course all cheeses, hams, salami and fruits, but here we’re mostly talking about a meal, or a whole course. Something that involve cooking or anyway create something from scratch.
We might be in search of the perfect meal, but what is the perfect meal? What makes a meal or a dish perfect? Anthony Bourdain in his “A Cook’s Tour” tries to find out the last experience in terms of meal. He eats anything and more, going up and down the globe.
In my past post called travel and eat I told the story of when I had fresh made pasta with prawns. Honestly this dish itself it wouldn’t be in my list for the aliens, but trust me eaten on the desert
So here it is, ladies and gentlemen the new section of my blog; I could call it To die For, but some else did it already, and in the foreword of the book he mentioned also To die After. It could be something like Stuff to eat before you die, but it sounds to common; I tried to google “eat before you die” and the response is quite vast.
So I thought that the aliens forced me to do list and the new section it’ll be called THE ALIENS’ LIST (Stuff to eat before you die)
