    Say you're being executed, what would you order for your last meal?

    I think I'd have a nice salad.

    Jamón serrano (well and perfectly sliced) with a large baguette accompanied by olive oil from Córdoba.

    Water. :smile:

    I don't like alcohol because I got hooked a few years ago. But I am open to drinking sake or wine often.

    As long as I was to be executed within an hour of finishing, my "last meal" (today; probably a different menu tomorrow) would be:

    • a large chef salad (spinach only, no avocado)
    • garlic vinegrette
    • side dish of sauteed mushrooms & onions
    • full bottle of Barolo red
    • pitcher of water with lemon slices

    (• 15 minute break, then dessert ...)
    • a whole German chocolate cake
    • gallon of strawberry ice cream
    • finally, a double Macallans 12 (neat)

    Nothing competes with a really good German chocolate cake, and make it homemade strawberry ice cream. Mmmm.

    This takes careful thought, but...

    As my last meal my request would probably begin with an amuse-bouche of the highly coveted Almas caviar from rare albino Beluga sturgeon, served on a crisp blini with creme fraiche. For the appetizer course, thinly sliced poisonous pufferfish (fugu) sashimi presented with a ponzu dipping sauce, accompanied by an extremely rare cup of Caffe Raro coffee. The fish course that would feature an abalone steak topped with shavings of precious white truffle. As the main meat entree, an A5 Kobe beef ribeye from one of the few certified cattle in Japan's Hyogo Prefecture, complemented by a salad of the sweet, crimson-fleshed Densuke black watermelon from Hokkaido. A cheese course of the notorious Casu Marzu, a traditional Sardinian cheese with live insect larvae. For dessert, a bird's nest soup made from the edible nests of cave swifts served with an exotic durian ice cream.

    And of course, a goblet of Screaming Eagle Wine to wash it all down. That should keep my executioners busy enough while i execute my escape plan.

    They could never execute me. And since death warrants specify the execution date, I'd only have to hold out long enough to reach the next calendar day.

    That reminded me of the joke about the guy that committed murder and went on the run. As he guessed that one day he would be caught and sentenced to death he decide to accustom his body to high voltage electricity. Every day he connected himself to a higher voltage until he managed to withstand over a 100,000 volts.
    When he was caught and tried he was all smiles knowing that if the death penalty failed he would have to be set free.
    The judge sentenced him to death, but the law had changed and now they used a lethal injection. :worry:

    Only a goblet?

    This inspires my choice of meal: a vertical of 10 vintages of Domaine Romanee Conti, to wash down some thin slices of comte cheese.

    Can I change my order?
    I'll stick to my Stilton and beer, but with the cheese course, I'd like apricots and walnuts instead of olives and as a main course, green chilli non carne with a side of guacamole. If they're going to kill me, I want the bastards to suffer a little.

    Fine, i'd like to change my order to 1 goblet, a bag of paper cups, and a whole bottle of Screaming Eagle for myself and everyone so graciously attending my execution to bid me farewell. I'm suddenly feeling magnanimous.

    Excellent choice good sir, although i do hope it never meets thy palate under such grave circumstances.
