Do you have a favorite dish at a particular restaurant?

For example: I love the BBQ Shrimp at the Cracked Conch in the Florida Keys.

Hello, I am Quasimodo. I have a very sad story to tell you. When I was born, in the summer. My skin was very soft, the sun was very hot....I melted. I grew a hump, and grew over my mouth....and my hump...it also grew a hump, I named it Charles. I have to now be fed through my hump. I get sad a lot. But what gives me happiness, is when I can have a good meal, by ordering some good pizza. I enjoy it when my friends, touch my hump, and massage it. I like to take showers with my hump. And get tattoos on my hump. I have a Hump Ring. If you wanna come massage my hump, call me at 123Hump Me!!!!

If you ever get to Oregon, I'll take you to the Great Wall for lunch on a Friday (they do have different specials each day of the week, but I like Friday's best). And the price is right-only $3.50 which includes the special plus tea and fortune cookie.

Fins Drive-In-I love their chocolate malts. Fins is one of those old-fashioned drive-in restaurants where you can pull into the drive-in stall with your car and a car hop comes out to take your order. It's like something out of Happy Days or American Graffiti They also have great hamburgers.

Do you live in a bell tower?
If not, maybe you should.
I've heard magic fairys and godmothers visit bell towers quite often.
Maybe one of them will have a magic wand to fix your hump.

Woo! I collect stamps too - well not so much anymore, but I did. I was so pleased when they brought out the Biggles one. We asked the Post Office to bring out a set for Captain WE Johns' (author of the Biggles books) centenary but they didn't so we were glad when they used him on their children's books characters one (Write a letter???)

My mum bought about 6 booklets. Some to keep and some to send to get back postmarked. Then we got quite a lot more on letters (especially our Biggles Flies Again magazine!)

We have two drive-ins in Akron, Ohio llike that. Swenson's and Sky-Way have the best burgers and milkshakes in town. They have car hops (all guys) run out to your car, take your order, run back in, and run your food out within a couple minutes.

I haven/t been to a drive-in movie in over 20 years. i just read in the paper a few days ago that a drive-in movie near here is one of only about 500 drive-in movies in the whole United States. There were a bunch of them in Akron when I was a kid. I don't know if you are old enouth to remember when they had playgrounds in front of the movie screens. The last time I went to the drive-in movie, they had two screens. We watched the movie we paid to see part of the time, and turned around and watched the other movie out the back window part of the time.

Only one of the drive-in's had a playground (we used to have 4 or 5). The last one that was in my town (before it was tore down) had three screens and we did the same thing. If we didn't like the movie and one screen, we just changed screens.

Oh yes-a famoso burrito at this restaurant named El Taco Zamarano in Oakland, about a mile away from my house. Its a huge burrito crammed with rice,beans, a choice of meat (I choose chicken all the time) and cheese, topped with a special sauce and more cheese. With some Sangria from there and I'm in 7th Heaven.

Oh yeah! The Savage (a type of gigantic pizza loaded) at Conan's Pizza in Austin Texas. Too bad my favorite Conan's location is now a Kirby Lane Cafe. I also love the fried calamari with peppers and garlic, with a side of cold Michelob, at Theo's in East Providence, RI. Lastly, you can't be in East Providence without a visit to the New York System for hot weiners, also known as belly busters or gaggers, which are NOT tasty, but they are strange, unique, and an unforgettable part of Providence and East Providence.

Pretty much anything at Simon Pierce, in Quechee, VT (though I can't think of anything specific off hand, it's been a while since I've been there).

The "Penisula Chicken" at an otherwise kind of crappy Chinese restaurant, Near East, near us in Somerville, MA- it's so chock-full of garlic it kicks butt.

The Salmon Tikka Masala, at an otherwise wonderful Indian restaurant, Diva, also near us, here.

Raw Salmon from just about anywhere that cuts it well.

Bread baked by my friend Robin in Cambridge, MA.

My own Carrot-Ginger Soup, in Somerville, MA (based on the Moosewood Cookbook version).

Oh, and if you go to Istanbul in Turkey, down by the bridge there used to be, at least, a couple guys who would go out every morning on their little tiny fishing boat and catch a day's worth of fish. they would come back to the dock by the ferry and start cooking them on a coal grill right on the boat- they would be flopping around on the deck, then tossed on the grill, made into a sandwich and sold for a few thousand Turkish Lire to the long queues of people standing near by. YUUMMMMMMMMYY!
