No image for this one but my Great Grandma makes a Filé shrimp gumbo that I only get to have about once every 10 years and it is like taking a bite of my childhood. It is also the best gumbo I have ever tasted and 90% of my family are New Orleans natives.

Anything from this restaurant:

http://www.springcreekfl.com/

It is about 20 mins from my house and it has the best seafood I've ever had. It is always same day fresh and they are brackish waters because a natural fresh water spring flows into the ocean right next to the restaurant.

EDIT: Incidentally, the recipe for my Great Grandma's gumbo and many other family recipes can be found in my Aunt Charlotte's book. She worked for Emeril and some of her recipes have been featured on his show.

Natto (Ferment Soybeans) and Calrose rice. An acquired taste, the gooier the better. If no Natto then Okra as backup. :mrgreen:

Other than that, I am an Osso Bucco fiend.
Before I found some good gyro places in georgia I was in north carolina feeling gyro withdrawl and ran across a gyro restaurant. . . with crappy frozen strips. There's a couple places here that are like that as well, I don't even bother, it's like an entirely different food. And the sauce at those kind of places tends to have the consistancy of watery mayo too.

Yes!!! It can be ate anytime, usually for dinner though. Super unhealthy but super tasty.

Great burgers. Nephews visiting from overseas, showed them what a real burger is.

They used to give out bumper stickers.
Lotta cars had these with the B and the last R colored out. :D

There is also a hidden menu.
