Aight, I'm about to enlighten a whole helluva lot of you so buckle up.

Le Réveillon is a holiday feast far and away proving the superiority of French. You'll never doubt who's on top of the ladder after a taste, so Giselle if she's still talking to me and I and anyone else who gets it are gonna school the rest of you on real food.

Normally we'd do that kinda thing for Christmas Eve and New Year's, but seeing as god and I aren't exactly on good terms and that means nothing to most of you besides, let's push it closer to the end of the year. Let's say [CONVENIENT DATE HERE]. Get the feeling some of you sad sacks are just as used to being alone for the holidays and need some kinda excuse.

Course, if you think you've got the superior recipes in your corner, you can always challenge us in the kitchen. Gauntlet? Consider it thrown. There's an industrial kitchen floor big enough for a full iron chef brawl or two.

Or we can duke it out the old fashioned way, if you wanna go for the real brawl.

((OOC: I'll throw a log up for cooking challenge, feasting, brawling, etc. after the holiday weekend, so around like the 26th or 27th. This way we can dodge overlapping with celebration plans and ICly the log can fit somewhere between xmas and new years. Unless someone else has an actual new years thing planned, I'll try to fold NYE stuff in there somewhere maybe?

Also it's close enough to the Figue and Ringo adventure that I think it's more than fair that characters can still be blasted with the truth beam for this post if you want. Go nuts.))

Are spectators allowed? If it's a competitors and judges only thing, I totally understand.

[cardsharked]

Not sure there'll be a whole lot to spectate, kid. You might as well just come to eat... or cook. Can you do either of those things?

[verkelmpt]

I mean yeah I can absolutely eat, but I don't know if I already know now that I won't be able to judge.

I have enough self-awareness to know that I'm the kind of guy that'll give anything that's edible a 10 out of 10

That's gonna change after you experience a traditional French feast. Sooner or later you'll figure out what you've been missing and deem everything else beyond compare, for real.

[Unless, of course, someone chooses the violence option; then some other contenders might show up. She's still completely confident in her ability to win that competition, anyway. The French dinner will come out on top regardless.]

Listen. What's something you'd feel bad about never eating again?

[ The answer to Odette's question is near immediate: ]

A McRib.

[cardsharked]

Sounds like you know exactly what floats your boat. But didn't they discontinue those like a whole ass decade ago?

[Hey, maybe he's out here saying that he's devastated over the loss of the McRib. There's only a little shame in that.]

[verkelmpt]

I think it's seasonal? Or, at least, seasonal in a way that's like, "Our sales aren't doing so hot, and pork is kind of cheap right now, so guess what, gang!"

But I know someone who makes like an identical replica, too

[cardsharked]

So the hail mcrib instead of the hail mary. gotcha. Americans innovation in action mdr

You think you could replicate that guy's recipe?
