Yesterday due to yet another hectic day at work, I missed lunch yet again. That probably happens three times a week. I've gotta make it a point to do better.
It's not like I want to miss lunch, it's just that there are times when I'm so damned busy that it feels like one minute it's 10:30am and the next thing I know it's 2:45pm. I have far too many days like that; meeting after meeting, conference call after conference call.
And it's not like my stomach didn't notice, but like always it seems to notice just a tad bit too late. Truth be told, I was so hungry that I could have eaten the boogers out of a dead man's nose and asked for seconds............well, maybe it wasn't quite that serious, but I was sho nuff hungry!!!
For the rest of the day, I ended up fiending on a good steak. While sitting in a leadership meeting from 3pm-5pm, I sat there drooling, thinking of a New York Strip or a nice Filet Mignon from Ruth Chris's or Shula's Steakhouse. Those are two of my favorite steakhouses and what I seem to fiend on when I'm really hungry.
What do you want when you're really really hungry?!? What's your favorite place to eat?!?
Nandos.. peri peri chips, olives, seasoned rice and a medium hot beanie burger! desired that all friday .. yum
ReplyDeleteI Googled the menu Dawna, sounds kinda interesting.
Delete*reminder to self: Do not eat while reading Reggie's posts*
ReplyDeleteWhen I'm really hungry I like basic meals like, bacon and eggs with grits and toast. Or a turkey burger and fries. I don't want fancy when I'm really hungry.
Now Val, bacon and eggs with grits and toast sounds good to me too. Some coffee would really set that off.
DeleteNot the boogers out of a dead man's nose, Sir... LOL.
ReplyDeleteI know when I am in danger of missing meals, I have a good amount of fruit laying around. That usually helps me. But when I'm hungry, I want real food!
When I am really hungry, I like a good spicy stir-fry. I must be part Asian, lol.
Nothing wrong with a nice spicy stir-fry LadyLee.
DeleteIn my desk at work I usually have an abundance of almonds and fiber bars....but that stuff just goes so far.
It is hard to focus when your stomach is growling. I hate when they schedule meetings back to back to back like people don't want to eat. They can at least offer to bring in lunch from somewhere. I try keep some sort of energy bar at my desk to choke down in between the madness.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have either of those steakhouses here but I really want to try Ruth Chris's one day when I come across one.
Worse than that Melissa is when on occasion some idiot will schedule a meeting for 5pm....and they know I get off at 5pm....that really pisses me off, but that does happen every couple of months or so.
DeleteI've probably eaten at Shulas and Ruth Chris's steakhouses a dozen times and I've never had a bad meal at any of the ones I've eaten. The food is always top quality.
I usually eat pretty good health-wise, but when I'm hungry---like reaaaallly hungry---I crave stuff like cheesecakes, fudge, half the menu from Bonefish Grill, and anything deepfried/breaded/spicy/with shrimp.
ReplyDelete**Damn, I'm hungry**
The Bonefish Grill has some good things going on LakiSwirl. The last time I ate there though was the day before Hurricane Sandy struck New Jersey and I ended up being stranded there with the wife for a few days.
DeleteFried shrimp can always be on my menu.......with just a dash of Tabasco it's banging!!
when am really hungry spicy food is my vice followed by guzzling down the recommended daily water intake....when am at home it's got to be kenke (traditional ghanaian dish) and fried fish with hot pepper sauce yummy.
ReplyDeleteAm a huge fan of Thai food and recently a few work mates and I have discovered a nice little hide out near work. When we're really hungry thats our fix...nice tasty spicy food and it's cheap as chips.
Barefoot Countessa I absolutely love fried fish, especially when it's been hit with a little Tabasco sauce.
DeleteI'm scared of Thai food, it's hot going in and hot coming out.
Reggie the boggers out of a dead man nose? When I'm really really hungry it don't matter what's on the menu.
ReplyDeleteI don't know Ann, I think that there are times when we all have a preference........and I'm hoping that the boogers out of a dead man's nose is never anyone's preference.
DeleteAn Italian cold cut from our local sub shop does the trick for me!
ReplyDeleteA sub sandwich Crystal? Okay, we all want what we want.
DeleteI thought you were talking about being hungry at lunch time...I don't usually sit down to a steak for lunch. Plus, I don't usually let myself get that famished...I usually have a backup snack at my desk or change for the snack machine.
DeleteEither way, I'm good with that answer Crystal. I keep snacks at my desk as well.
DeleteI prefer shrimp.. Deep fried or sauté in a fresh veg and rice blend. I prefer to cook myself because i found out that the stomach aches i had after eating at restaurants wasn't from over eating, but the preservatives they use in their foods...
ReplyDeleteI love shrimp 1manview.
DeleteBut, I need to know where the shrimp came from. Was it farm raised in Southeast Asia or was in caught in the Atlantic. I'd prefer my shrimp weren't swimming around eating out of their own toilet, unless that toilet is the size of an ocean. I've noticed some restaurants don't go out of their way to properly clean shrimp. I would expect not to have to eat shrimp shit, when I'm eating shrimp....particularly when you can see it.
When I fry shrimp, I like to clean it thoroughly and marinate it first in Tabasco......that'll give it that extra wang I need.
gracious. Funny thing about this post is that Saturday a friend and I were just having this exact conversation. I was actually off on Saturday and we were going to site see in our city. We ended up at the Grand Lux and it was AMAZING. I had the chicken Madeira - Delish. I also love Lucille's here - check out their menu - AWESOME. I miss Pappadeaux so gonna have to get down south soon.
ReplyDeleteI keep some creamy peanut butter and crackers in my locker at work just in case. Its good for the tie over.
Ya know Freckles I travelled to San Antonio last summer and I think I saw my first Papadeaux's there. I understand that they are in Atlanta as well, one of these days I'll make it a point to eat there.
DeleteI need to replenish the snacks in my drawer at work, today I noticed that I was completely out.
Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this blog. It's simple, yet effective.
ReplyDeleteA lot of times it's difficult to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appearance. I must say you've done a amazing job with
this. Also, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Firefox.
Excellent Blog!
Here is my web blog ... petite lady in Gangbang
C'mon Anonymous what in the hell does this post have to do with petite ladies getting gang banged?!? Please stay on topic.
DeleteReggie My Man...Porterhouse all day and a fresh baked potato.... not good unless the potato is my side, Um um, Lord. Second, Crab Cakes, Texas has the worst I ever eaten by the way.
ReplyDeleteI just love a good Porterhouse too Texas Queen. When I was in San Antonio last year I ate at Saltgrass and that steak was smothered in mushrooms.....damn it was good.
DeleteIf you want good crab cakes you've gotta go to Baltimore. What they do there with lump crabmeat ought to be against the law.
What? I agree about the Porterhouse but Eddie V's has REALLY good crad ckaes.
DeleteEddie V's?!? Where is that John?!?
DeleteIn TEXAS. I think they have them all over but it IS possible to get a good crab cake here.
DeleteThere you go John, defend Texas why don't cha. I've had crabcakes in more than a few places, but I've never one any better than I got in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore.
DeleteWhen I'm really hungry, I have to have some honey chipotle chicken crispers with some Texas cheese fries from Chili's
ReplyDeleteFashionablyUnique....that sounds quite tasty. I've never had those before, but the next time I go to Chili's I'm gonna try and remember them.
DeleteWhen I'm really wanting something to eat, some grilled catfish, mac and cheese, green beans, and some corn bread. (then I'd make plans to work it off the following day...lol)
ReplyDeleteNo Labels I live in the south, but grilled catfish is something that I'm not sure that I've ever had. I like it fried, but I'm not sure that I would like it grilled. Maybe I would though, who knows? Maybe I will try it if I ever see it. Now grilled talapia yeah, but catfish?!?
DeleteTo each his own.
Now that cornbread and mac n cheese.....oh yeah that's good. Over the holidays I made some lobster macaroni and cheese that made my tongue slap my brains clean out.
Yeah, I normally eat it fried...but I'm trying to behave with the whole healthy eating, but grilled with the right amount of seasoning is very good. Mac and cheese is my weakness though...lol
DeleteSo am I. I'm trying to eat healthier too. I don't eat a lot of fried foods now. I'm baking a lot of meat right now, grilled is great too.
DeleteMacaroni and cheese with lobster and crawfish and shrimp in it is outstanding.
I've heard of Ruth Chris...think they have one in Princeton and that they are mad expensive.
ReplyDeleteThere is one in Princeton. Sure it's expensive but the food is really good. When that steak comes to the table sizzling and looking and smelling the way that it does, you immediately recognize why it costs so much.
DeleteI'll give it a try...place it under one of my Try New Places type thing...
DeleteDo that....you won't regret it.
DeleteOh lawd, here I go...lol
ReplyDeleteIf it's breakfast time and I'm really hungry, I'm heading to Cafe du Monde for some beignets and hot cocoa. Other than that,it depends on where I am. I'm hitting up Acme, Deanies,Camelia Grill or one my favorite sandwich shops...Parkway Tavern,Domilies,etc. depending on my location. That's the problem living here, if you're hungry, there are a ton of great places to eat.
By the way, We Never Close now closes at midnight. What kind of mess is that!?!
Now why in the hell would "We never close" close?!? That just doesn't make sense BayouCreole.
DeleteI used to go there for lunch at least once a week and get a shrimp po-boy and by the time I ate all the shrimp around the sandwich, I was damned near full. They used to pile the shrimp up.
I haven't thought about Deanies in a while.....their seafood platter was nothing to play with.
Reggie, you in da' Souf. You ain't never supposed to be hongry.
ReplyDeleteYou KNOW that women down here will cook for a man in a second.
I know man, but when you can't get out for lunch that don't matter. I've gotta make it a point to take a break.
DeleteOk, I am hungry now :-)
ReplyDeleteSurprisingly so am I....I might need to go ahead and eat dinner.
DeleteReggie, When I was in Baltimore off of Fells Ave there is a place called Shuckers the crab cakes ( and a Bud on the side) had me eating like there was no one else around, I had to get and order to go. I then called the location when I got home for the recipe, which they shared! You are right totally against the law... and my mouth is watering at the thought.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Texas Queen. A couple of weeks ago I was in Maryland and I had dinner in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. Shuckers sounds like the place to go eat.....rather than the place my wife and I ended up that night.
DeleteHeya i am for the first time here. I came across this board and I find It really
ReplyDeleteuseful & it helped me out a lot. I hope to give something back and
aid others like you helped me.

DeleteI go for the quick, cheap,and greasy when I'm hungry. The local bird spot! I have never been to Ruth's Chris will have to go..
ReplyDeleteWhat's your favorite "local bird spot" Windy City Mama?!?
DeleteWell now I'm hungry too! I love a good steak. I've never ate at Ruth's Chris, but I heard their sweet potato casserole was really good. I am an ice cream junkie. I love to snack on Blue Bell homemade vanilla ice cream or hoagie from Publix. My favorite restaurant lately is Copeland's.
ReplyDeleteI've never had the sweet potato casserole there, I didn't remember that they ever served one.
DeleteI love Blue Bell ice cream too. I prefer chocolate though and Publix's ice cream is pretty good too. Their Chocolate Trinity is outstanding.
Chipotle. Mmm. There is nothing like a huge burrito filled with white rice, black beans, and cheese. Perfection!!
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me.
DeleteHome. I cook mostly what I crave. I just got some steaks so that'll be a good dinner soon. If I CRAVE to be anywhere...it's normally some guilty pleasure. I eat well most days so the bad stuff is what I normally want. McDonald's or Pizza Hut...although I do like the Cheesecake Factory. I love their chicken enchilada dish. Hell, I've even mastered their strawberry lemonade...lol
ReplyDeleteThe Cheesecake Factory has some awesome food Kween, but that shit is fattening as hell.
DeleteTheir Key Lime Pie cheesecake is absolutely awesome!!
