Comfort Food - Whats yours?

[central_smurf]

you are always hearing people talking about their comfort foods especially celebrity chefs on cooking shows, and i was just wondering what yours was?

mine would have to be a big plate of pasta with a tomato, garlic and basil sauce, or a plate of antipasto with cheeses and olives etc

what food makes you feel better?

[ChemicalKitten]

chicken and cashew stirfry
a hot mocha and some nachos from the Coffee Club
subway foot long
chocolate deluxe drumstick
a biiiig red slurpee
lifesavers! :offchops:
daiquiris
big plate of chinese beef and black bean with rice and spring rolls in plum sauce..
pasta bolognaise with 2 slices of fresh garlick bread
chicken lasagne
fresh crusty bread with light philly cheese..

god.. the list goes on and on..

[bella boo]

- anything spicey (so hot it burns your mouth and you can't breath, yum!)
- roasted or stir fried vegies
- anything with melted cheese...mmm
- ultra fresh bread (by itself)
- chocolate


...actually come to think of it, any food makes me feel better so long as it tastes good.

[Tax Invoice]

pork buns
pancakes

[giraffe]

potato potato potato - don't care how it comes as long as its a potato

I also read in some stupid magazine that people who eat lots of potato are lonely, so that made me sad and so I ate a packet of chips.

[bella boo]

Nothing makes me feel as good as STRAWBERRIES do.


They're JUST behind a man. Put the two together and...nevermind :/

[ChemicalKitten]

girl im on ur train of thought there...

mmmm, put a bit of chocolate on those strawberries - or the man..

and god damn!!! :blush:

i better stop right there.. im at work u kno!! ;)

[geisha]

hmm... there's soo many but i think chocolate and carmel yogo is up there topping the chart!!!

[Far_Canal]

I like to munch on a moist warm vagina for comfort...

Oooopppps did I just say that?
:blush:

[Chick]

cheeses
chocolate
pastas
fried food
laksa

Comfort food must be high in fat and must be washed down with lots of alcohol.

[SpaceMonkey]

MEAT. lots of it. Ideally a whole pig on a spit.
Whittakers peanut slabs
Magnums
Frosty fruits
devil wings
cheesecake (but not cheap stuff)
Oporto or Ogalo burgers
Beer
Vodka
Ecstasy

[giraffe]

Figures that another kiwi would relate to that one ;D At least you can buy them here too, it's one food I don't have to get homesick for. And how good were their advertising campaigns?

[SKYCRUISER]

Sushi.

[giraffe]

Ads were good - not sure if you're a fan but I had numerous marshmellow eggs (you know with the yellow in the middle) shipped over for easter you just can't get the real ones here...mmmm

[phatman]

Pork or baby back beef ribs. Piled high on the plate and drowned with quality barbeque sauce, torn apart and eaten with bare hands. Wearing a bib is optional. In fact, the eating of such delicious fare is made all the more satisfying when you are wearing more sauce than you ate.

I don't know about comfort food, but as far as hangover cures are concerned, there is a take away shop in the food court below my office building that has what I describe as the big fuck-off breakfast, or instant heart disease, whatever.

For $6 you get on a massive plate, a bed of hot chips, two fried eggs, two fried rashers of bacon, two sausages and hot baked beans poured over the lot. Gravy is optional but recommended. Sends a hangover packing.

I also find an 800 gm t-bone very comforting.

[SPOKEYDOKEY]

chocolate cake shaped like a bean bag or a doona

Word to that Phats, NOTHING beats a monster greasy fry-up with all the trimmings for a hangover. Getting smashed on business trips rocks for that reason, 'cause the hotel usually has a breakfast buffet that you can stuff yourself with bacon at.
And yep, ribs and srteaks are the shit :p

[bella boo]

Or...

A fat chunk of juicy, tender steak swimming in mushroom sauce. Oh yeah baby, bring it on!

Or...

Enchiladas with ultra hot chilli.

Or...

Fajitas. Extra hot. Oh yeah. Gotta love the mexican :)

A fat souvlaki (or kebab, for the picky ones) full of beef, lettuce, tomato, onion, dripping in hot chilli and garlic sauce.

Oh yeah, I'm wet.


































My mouth is watering, damn you filthy people.

[Minxie]

Anything really stodgy like pasta, potatos, porridge - the more carbs the better when you are feeling grotty!

[littleblonde]

Gelato :) closely followed by Ice Cream.

Let's just hope I don't get too upset by anything ;)

[Moonkissed]

hokey pokey ice cream
tortellini
yogurt
chocolate in blocks
butter chicken
mango smoothies
caramel milkshakes
jelly beans

[juicytbone]

a biiiiiiiig juicy tbone (only joking)

my favourites at the moment are nutella on ridiculously fresh bread or nestle chocolate mousse.

tbones are so intimidating, they just dominate your plate

[Heist9000]

Strip Sub from red rooster with extra mayo
Chicken Korma from sitar :offchops:
Peters entice (Clearly, im gonna eat the whole fucker and get sick)

[DarkenRahl]

Very similar to my normal diet. Curries, hot stir fry's home made lasagne (if I've got nothing better to do).

Lazy food for me is usually a stick of spanish salami, like the one I'm eating right now. :-D Honey Buzz Yougurt is another lazy food along with canned currie sauces when icbf preparing ingredients.

Try to avoid naughty foods but can easily be seduced by BBQ shapes chilli kettle chips etc.

Err yes. I should probably stop wasting time and go to bed so I can get enough sleep and be capable of dancing all night...

:blush:

Have you read American Psycho by any chance?

[JasonRhee]

It's Korean.
It's a chicken soup dish, pressure cooked whole with onion, ginger, garlic and other stuff that only mum knows (gotta get the recipe). The chicken comes out really really REALLY soft. Then you mix some boiled rice into it and fresh shallots to finish it off. Salt and pepper for flavour.
It's the BEST for a cold winter afternoon when it's raining.

OR

A really well made gourmet (with big chunks of beef) shephards pie.

OR

BOOST JUICE!!! (All berry bang) ;D ;D
If I was really immature I'd think that sounds naughty :blush:

[N4TE]

*in a very small voice* I don't feel like eating...


...hold me.

[MissBee]

I have to say the best comfort food EVER is a pizza base topped with marshmallows and swiss chalet chocolate and cooked in the oven!!!! OH MY GOD!!!

Firstly, that is disgusting. :D

Secondly, you are lining yourself up for lines about being pollenated.

You have been warned.

Mmmm a 1ltr tub of this and a big spoon :) yummy

Also I'm the only person i've ever met who's into this, but Peanut butter and honey sandwiches or on toast....Everyone else likes peanut butter and jam :meh:
Also Tasmanian Leatherwood honey is THE BOMB!!! hard to find but i could eat that straight outa the jar :blush:

[forgedmc]

Apparently drinking tricky milk (ie: milk that isn't exactly unsneaky) works as well.

[Sabishii]

Teriyaki chicken on steamed rice
Toblerone
vegetable soup
japanese vegetable pancakes
sticky date pudding
sakatas with hummous dip
roast lamb dinner w mint sauce and lots of gravy
fresh figs, nashi fruit, pineapple
miso soup with udon noodles and tofu
hummingbird cake
ceasar salad (no anchovies)
Antipasto: kalamata olives, chargrilled capsicum, marinated mushrooms, feta cheese and dolmades

poached eggs with toast soldiers

(all this rich food reminds me of the "good morning burger" ep from the simpsons... rich creamery butter... :lol:)

[clonex]

i love scandinavian hash

[feeble]

Homer Hudson Hoboken Crunch icecream

Chorizo and butter bean soup- the best soup ever (except when I get stoned and burn it :()

Dumplings in all shapes and forms- there's even something comforting about the name- "dumpling". So very cute.

Boiled eggs with vegemite toast soliders- reminds me of being little

Roast Duck Noodle Soup- fat in a bowl, but there's nothing better when its late on a cold dark night and you're drunk and hungry.

Rissotto- specially pumpkin and pancetta rissotto. YUM.

Chicken with ratotuille and couscous- one of the few dishes that invokes a good memory of my mum's cooking (the rest was absolute crap, so I'm especially fond of this dish)

Fresh figs, strawberries and ohmygod fresh raspberries. Especially when someone else is handfeeding them to you. Nothing more comforting than that, let me assure you.

[miss muffett]

mmmm

crumpets
macaroni cheese
lasagne
blocks of chocolate
chocolate ice cream

stoppit, I'm getting hungry and I'm trying to be good :( I'm not reading this thread anymore.
