Michael Landrum Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 In a desperate attempt for attention and relevance, and to titillate the media with proof that DC isn't a second-rate restaurant town, we are planning a special Don Rockwell-only 11,111 course Blowout Benefit Dinner to celebrate the next cutting edge culinary trend to which Ray's holds the sole claim--Zygo-Eschatological Gastronomy, or Gastronomie Zygo-Eschatologique. The menu will consist of 11,111 progressive courses, many of which are individual gametes, zygotes, spermatazoa, ova, roes, spores and polyps of different species, and bulding up to various glands, glans, sacs, gonads, ovaries, testicles and "taints"--with a surprise "flight of fistulae" course thrown in. The special Don Rockwell price for this feast is a mere $111.11. All proceeds from the event will benefit me, of course. There will also be an option for matched pairings of specialty, craft, micro and exotic brews curated by the most boring and pedantic person I can find at the bar at RFD, hopefully one with spurious British affectations. Edited to adjust for my idiocy. (Can one of the special moderators edit the title?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.A.R. Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 If I wanted seconds of course #7,328 would that be a problem? Also, will there be gonad powder? I love gonad powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillvalley Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Isn't this a decade late? It was one of the first events organized when the board was created. Dish #1414 was ventworm nuts. One of the best 5/8th bite of food I have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jparrott Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 And to think, this can only be a preview dinner for the main event in ten months' time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
