A deep dish pizza from Pizzeria Due on Wabash in Chicago. Dat's a no brainer.

It would have to be something I've never had before. Neil Gaiman has a story (The Sunbird of Suntown maybe?) about eating a phoenix, but that's probably not realistic. Part of me likes the idea of eating Ortolan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortolan_Bunting#Ga..., but 99% of me feels that idea is too evil. Also, it doesn't really sound very good. Does a smoke come with the meal? If so, I definitely want to finish with an Indian bidi; stupid IL politicians made them illegal for no real reason, so I haven't had one in years. Hmm, what would I eat? Frankly, I think I would ask for a smorgasbord of dishes (tapas style, so I can taste a bunch) from around the world. It's all about new experiences.

Without a doubt, it would be sushi. Plenty of salmon, tuna, octopus and eel. Better work some soft shell crab rolls and salmon skin rolls in there, too. Thanks a lot – now I just drooled on my computer. I simply can't resist Asian flavors.

I'm from Kansas City, MO (currently living in Boulder, CO) but most of my last meal wishes are local places from there:

# Arthur Bryants pulled pork BBQ sandwich with an entire plate of lard fries and a cup of their dill pickle slices
# A side of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese (Scooby-Doo shapes)
# A chocolate shake from LCâ€™s Hamburgers (KC local joint) and a big glass of cherry Pepsi with Sonic ice to wash it all down.
# And a chocolate cupcake with peanut butter frosting from Ina Gartenâ€™s â€œBarefoot at Homeâ€ cookbook with a big glass of whole milk.

A roasted chicken, green bean casserole, ground veal stuffed olives breaded and fried, bacon wrapped fillet mignon medallions, butter squash, a pitcher of Stone Brewery Double Bastard ale, the chocolate cheese cake that reminds me of a loved one, and a double Bombay Gin dry martini. I could die happy after that.
