I'll have to add that one time when I was in the navy, a Texas buddy of mine and I went to have some local cuisine.  We stopped in at a restaurant in a mall  just south of Norfolk NAB on the water and each of us ordered a pound of steamed shrimp in chesapeake seasoning with melted butter on the side with 2 ice cold mugs of beer.  That **** was finger licking good, mang.

RPM, I've had a couple of days like that myself.  Budweiser turns into a 50/50 combination of pure crystal clear drinking water with a chaser of malted hops.  Pretty damn good.

One thing I recall tasting pretty dang good was after 6 weeks at boot camp, soda was strictly prohibited.  After 6 weeks, that first Coca Cola tasted so good, we about gagged on the carbonation.

Fresh Scomber scombrus cooked on open fire straight from the ocean with plenty of butter. I was REALLY hungry so a great fish turned into something fantastic. Ive tried to replicate it, but the problem is getting hungry enough to really enjoy it like i remember from back then.

My grandmother’s pelmeni.  She is gone, and with her the best food that ever graced a table.

I worked at Outback for 2 years, we were allowed to eat as much of that bread as we wanted while working, I swear I can't eat that bread ever again.  

Have you been there lately, they changed there BBQ sauce, taste like crap now.

Buffalo Short Rib at The Lodge at Bayou Bend. It was the best dish I've ever been served, anywhere.

I gotta go with the folks who've been really thirsty or really hungry.

For me it was at work and the arrival of the taco truck.

I was running late, didn't get a real breakfast (coffee + an apple or nothing maybe).  Light headed all morning, 12:30 I hear the obnoxious horn as the truck pulls up.

Everyone lines up, orders coming out.  I get the "taco plate".  3 soft tacos made with doubled-up grilled tortillas, pulled chicken, onions, jalapenos and their special spices.  Beans, rice, guac, crema on the side.  Finger licking good.  Swab up all the juice and salsa with the extra tortillas.

I used to be scared of these driving health hazards, but the ladies run a tight ship on this one.

And on that day (and to this day) it was the best thing I've ever tasted.

sucks...I'm all hungry now and taco trucks don't make it by my new job :(
