Come on now. Old sneakers are best done in a pressure cooker; everybody knows that.
These collards and hoppin john were consumed on 1/1, which is proper.
The year I retired my wife and I flew to France to visit our daughter. We decided to tour Père Lachaise; afterwards we dined in a very nice restaurant. Duck confit for me, it was delicious. I really enjoy seeing the pictures @Brute posts of the foods he prepares. My culinary skills are damned limited. Seeing what he prepares often makes me want to knock on his door.

I was going to make something that required 2 1/2 hours to prepare but I started getting hungry so I went with a choice that was completed in 20 minutes. Velveted chicken breast with shiitakes in a coconut milk braise with kaffir lime, sambal olek, fish sauce and chicken stock served over chow mein rice noodles with olive oil and Colatura braised baby spinach. Picture taken before a sprinkling of cilantro, fresh mint and Thai basil.
20 minutes?! Looks good, and at that speed you must either work commercial kitchen illicit substance driven fast, have a third hand, or a solid sous chef.
Black pepper chicken.
A jalapeño and cheddar cheese omelette topped with habanero sauce and hash brown patties.
Rigoberto's Taco Shop>Chicken Burrito.
Hey you’re in town. We might’ve crossed paths in transit as I took the kids for burgers yesterday. Dub-C is a solid burger but the Boss fries are nothing special, and I had a taste for a fried chicken sando (and Boss’s is not good) so that means I took the kids to Coastline, which, if you haven’t tried it, deserves a go. Coastline makes their own near perfect buns and their fries are legit.

Agreed on the Boss fries - reminiscent of Ore-Ida crinkles. Burger was pretty good, tho.
Coastline is pretty good, the WS shop is about 3 blocks from where I used to live with a nice older couple
I went to Boss because Farmboy was closed when my plane got in. It's still on the list, as is Familyfriend.
After several Texas county fairs, fried oreos are rather pedestrian. Deep-fried ice cream is where it's at.Did you get the deep fried Oreos ?

Sometimes a fella just wants somethin' remotely resembling a pizza.
We had a few Naan that were approaching "less than fresh" status, so we oiled em up and toasted em for a sec, then dressed em with a sauce of roasted tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and some of them penzeys I-talian herbs. Put some fresh Montana Zemo garlic slabs on em, a few oz of hot sopressata slices, some sliced roasted peppers, then topped it with mozz and pecorino. Enjoyed with about half a bottle of bitchin' super Tuscan.
