I thought it would be fun to ask the male posters, what is their "can't miss" meal
Mine is
Caribbean Black Bean and Rice Salad
Caribbean Crab Cakes with Spicy Dipping Sauce
Roasted Chicken with Fennel Stuffing and Currant Relish
Candied Yams and Pineapple
Decadent Peanut Butter Pie
Santorini Wine
and for breakfast the next morning 8)
Spicy Shrimp with Grits
Of course, to set the right "mood" on my surround sound would be Brian Culbertson's CD "It's On Tonight"
what do my fellow CM'ers prepare for the "special ladies" in their lives

I seriously love to cook meals of several courses when entertaining guests. Nonetheless, when I plan to dine with a special lady, I make
reservations.
For the record, here's the menu from my most recent dinner party (which was not exactly "dinner for two").
>> Hors d'oevres (shrimp cocktail, an assortment of crackers and cheeses)
>> Cream of Celery Soup
>> Garden Salad
>> Roast Pork Loin with Lemon Pepper Seasoning, Served with Gourmet Yukon Gold Potatoes, Broccoli Drizzled with White Vinegar, and Cranberry Sauce
>> Apple Pie, Served with Coffee, Tea, or Milk
Of course, I served a suitable wine with the meal.
Norm.
