IronTiger Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 The HAIF is a unique bunch, but I was wondering what food is almost universally approved within HAIF. At my school, everyone seems to approve Dr Pepper (and Nutella, for that matter), but at the HAIF, a universal favorite has got to be in order. Some of the things I enjoy include steak, pizza, homemade bread, smoothies, Dr Pepper, coffee, and donuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyps Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 how could you omit the omnipotent burger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I'm on board with you for steak, homemade bread and Nutella. I'd add New York and Vermont cheddar cheeses, both Cincinnati and Texas-style chili, and brandy ice cream.Also, the new Starbucks VIA instant coffee is pretty good, but it takes some practice to make it right.

Montrose1100 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Burgers... steak, brisket, ribs, hot dogs, taco bell & chow mein.. Anything asian & tex-mex.However, not just any of the above. Taco Bell would be nothing without fire sauce. I think its all about what you dress your food with..Nutella is ecstasy, but spreadable. But for some reason I'm not a fan of sweets anymore.

IronTiger Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 I also like tasty hummus, salmon (there was a tasty restaurant in Rice Village that served good salmon, but the serving was small), and cheesesteaks (Texadelphia's!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barracuda Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Well, I read a recipe elsewhere that gave the recipe (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/the-best-of/pats-king-of-steaks-philadelphia-cheese-steak-recipe/index.html) to the famous Philly "Pat's King of Steaks". I went to Philadelphia, and they were sold out of cheesesteaks by lunchtime. Cheapskates. I suppose the "Philly Connection" places spread around Houston are frauds too, right? I have to agree with Red on this one, but then again, I grew up outside Philly. A good cheesesteak outside Philly is like good Tex-Mex outside Texas. Very hard to find. My overall favorites are Thai, Mediterranean, Indian, and Vietnamese. I can pretty much always eat pizza, even if it's not very good quality. I would bet that pizza is probably the most universal favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fringe Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I have a friend from Philly that tells me the only good cheesesteak has cheese-wiz on it, which sounds totally gross to me, but I'm willing to try anything (except sushi). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Hemingway did that. Either that or you want to create a "drunk Texan" stereotype. But if that was true, that would explain a lot of weird posts around here.

Original Timmy Chan's Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 If I could only eat one thing for the rest of my life, it would have to be black-eyed peas.If I could have two things, I'd add Pecos canteloupe.JCI hot dogs and Whataburger would also make the top 10.

Vertigo58 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Snow crab or Alaskan King crab legs I cave in for!

IronTiger Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 I like shrimp, too, but not fried. I like sushi too, but because its so expensive and limited, I rarely eat it The "cake batter" flavored ice cream (there was a decent Creamy Creations version, but I think it was a special edition). Coffee is good with almost anything (make mine black) Those really flat and thin M&M cookies from Kroger. Tofu isn't really that bad. It's a bit bland, but cooked the right way, it's worth eating. I wouldn't eat it as a meat substitute though. Crawfish Green apples Salads with feta cheese Again, keep in mind that my favorite foods are rarely available/expensive. I don't eat these normally. And tofu is not one of my favorite foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Breakfast for every meal! And the occasional Smashburger (yes, it's from Denver and yes it's a chain, but there must be some sort of new MSG substance in it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark F. Barnes Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Smoked Boudin and Bugs. Had some last night. Smoked 20 pounds of Boudin, it's better as left overs. The smoke flavor really comes out the second and third day, if it makes it that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
