Gameday food & drink

[crandc]

I'm watching the game at home on NBA League Pass from afar. I'm eating a disgustingly healthy meal from my garden. Salad, pasta with roasted tomato sauce, green beans parmesan, and fresh figs and grapes for dessert.

If the Blazers win, I'll treat myself to a Kahlua.

 

[LOTBfan]

Is that a picture of Kahlua?

 

[The Professional Fan]

Sorry to get off topic...but does the Ash Street have the most disgusting bathroom in all of Portland??

Well, yes. Though I haven't been in every bathroom in the metro area, I would be willing to bet the Ash bathroom ranks right up there as the worst.

However, and thankfully not every one knows this, but there's a much nicer unisex bathroom in the performance side of the bar. I use that one.

But they have cheap beer, they're right next to the max line, and the chick that typically works the bar has one of the nicest asses I've ever seen. It has it's upside.

Hoping for the free chalupa walking out the door. If the Blazers have the vouchers ready for season ticket holders that paid in full, I will be getting the hush puppies from the soul place at the RG. Not rich enough for beers there though.

The chick with the dreadlocks? ...I've been going there on and off since before they knocked out the wall and I never knew there was a bathroom in that side... Have fun!

Yes, her. She's super nice as well. Very good at what she does.

 

[ehizzy3]

Pizza and coke during the game with some apple pie ice cream! Yes, apple pie ice cream.

pizza and cocaine, great combo!!

 

[VenomXL]

Big ol' Costco pizza and some Newcastle beer.

 

[DUB]

You guys are making me thirsty, hungry, and jelous.

I'll be sitting at my desk at work with a coffee, and a hot salami and salad roll; keeping tabs on the box scores, and the game thread.

Yeah, but you're in Perth and summer is approaching, so the jealousy goes both ways.

 

[DUB]

Nope Adelaide. Schenscher is playing for Perth this season, but was born and raised in Adelaide.

Yep summer is getting closer, it's supposed to get up to 28C (82.4F) here today, to keep getting warmer the rest of the week, and to push 100F on Sunday.

I wish I was at the beach, instead of stuck in an office.

wont you be able to watch the game on trailblazers.com since they are streaming it?

 

[DUB]

If I was at home, yep.

Unfortunately the Internet connection at work is craptacular (I struggle to even get the audio stream to work).

So I'm relying on you guys to keep me posted.

 

[TradeNurkicNow]

Yes, apple pie ice cream.

I think I just came a little.

Marinepolis!

Gross. That place used to be ballah now it's crusty. I call it sushibucket.

Smoking a few bowls then going to Subway

I approve, good sir.

 

[TradeNurkicNow]

oh, and me? I am living it up with my water and pretzels, sitting at work. Thankfully I'll be off at 8, at which point I will find the nearest bar and buy a single microbrew (I'm thinking something dark) and nurse it throughout the rest of the game. I will do this because I have neither beer nor a television

 

[ehizzy3]

ah i see...that sucks

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Just had a green salad and some fish.

The breaded halibut from Trader Joes is easy to make and actually pretty good.

I'll probably have a few Lagunitas IPA's during the game.

 

[BlazersBlood]

Just finished off my Thai food. Mussemen (sp?) curry, crispy basil chicken, and my wife's fave, pad thai.

On the way home I stopped by the liquor store to get a pint of Patron for around $50, but I ended up getting a half-gallon because it was on sale. My wife almost wanted to slap me. LOL

 

[Buzz Killington]

ate some of the red velvet cucakes i bought...the bom b!

My bad. That being said, Adelaide is a beautiful town, so it's not like you're suffering.

 

[DUB]

Not everyone's cup of tea, but I like it.

Pretty relaxed, laid back kind of place.

You've visited before?

so it's not like you're suffering.

Just from my inability to see the opening game.

Luckily the Denver game is being televised here, so I can record that, and watch it when I knock off.

Yeah, I participated in a competition at the University of Sydney, then spent the next few weeks hitching rides around the country. I love Australia.

 

[oldguy]

Just for the record...

FUCK HABANERO POPPERS!

I bit off about a quarter of the tip and shit my pants. Sweat, snot, tears, hiccups and I think I might have suffered brain damage.

I spit it out for fear of foot-long flames shooting out my ass in the morning.

And I thought I could eat hot stuff.

LMMFAO! That's some funny shit. Eat some yogurt to cool it down on the way out.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Now eatin' Cheez-It's and still drinkin' Ebineezer beer!

 

[Buzz Killington]

ended up being taco bell x beer!

 

[oldguy]

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it try next time I'm being stupid. I won't need the tip tomorrow, since I choked it out into the trash can.

All the tips I've heard before didn't do jack shit when I was on fire.
You hear salt takes away the heat? BULLLLLSHIT!

Milk helps slightly, as long as it's cold and it's in your mouth. The only thing that kept me from walking into the bright light was keeping a half a pat of butter and ice in my mouth. After doing that for about 15 freak'n minutes, I finally started to breathe normally. Don't know when I might be able to taste anything again.

There is definitely truth in the tip about milk/butter/yogurt. It has to do with the fat in it...try whole milk. And for the record Habaneros wreck pretty much everything. I put a little sliver of habanero in chili once and wrecked the whole batch...it burned so much you couldn't taste the chili...

 

[DUB]

I love Australia.

Strangely enough, so do I.

Everyone who comes here always says that , but I never know if they're just pissing in my pocket.

LMMFAO! That's some funny shit. Eat some yogurt to cool it down on the way out.

Yep yoghurt works a treat.

I find the best thing to cool me down when I'm eating a hot Vindaloo is Greek or natural yoghurt (eg not sweet) mixed with grated cucumber (best to deseed the cucumber).

Are you kidding? You name it, MaxieP has done it.
