Patience
He strikes me as a buffet kinda guy. When he gets the love back it's going to be a bite of seared medium rare ribeye perfectly seasoned and a dollop of fresh horseradish, a bite of bacon crusted roasted brussel sprouts, a bite of sweet potato with cinnamon, brown sugar, and just the right amount of marshmallows, a small cob of sweet corn with salted sweet cream butter (and a small slather of mayo if he's really wanting a treat!), some perfectly crispy orange chicken on a bed of pork fried rice, a maple honey glazed pork butt (or shoulder could work), and a PILE of tacos - Barbacoa, pastor, carnitas, grilled chicken, and fajita steak. Then, he'll end with a gooey chocolate brownie ala mode and a small slice of sweet potato pie covered in whipped cream.
Yes yes yes yes.
Definitely yes, yes,for sure,8 or 9 of those and yes, most definitely forget the dairy allergy 2 brownies please. :smiling-face-with-smiling-eyes:
I'm on my way first I want I'll start with the stroganoff. ;)
 
Looks gross, tastes great!

Stroganoff of all kinds is the bomb.
Now you've made me really hungry.
I think I like food again.
Hey, that's not fair you got me.!

If it makes you feel any better, my dogs are drooling on my legs currently.
 
It's always easier to enjoy food when someone else makes it for you.

Or, that one piece of sashimi, perfectly prepared by Jiro Ono; followed by a sip of tea, where the leaves are still unfurling.

Not really a tea drinker and never had sashimi but would not be opposed.

Joel, add best sushi in LA to our baseball game extravaganza
 
A nice thick fresh cut of tuna with a drizzle of raw honey. 1 minute on each side.

Or a seared Copper River Salmon filet with a honey citrus glaze.

I enjoy some, but not a fan of avocado or cucumber which is 80% of the sushi out there.

And Timmy, you better meet us there! How about those pics that DID happen. I got you too eating sushi. You do know I also have cold sake as well. The tea is just to get the palette started
