Vote! Vote! Cast your votes!

I’ve finished the last character themed meal, which means, of course, that it’s time to start thinking about the next one.

I was going to wait a while longer to post this, but it’s the middle of a week that’s crawling along, and here in Boston it’s grey and rainy. Also, I’m still sad there are no more episodes to watch on Sundays!

Clearly, the only thing for it is a GoT food pick-me-up, in the form of a rabid vote-off to determine our next character themed meal.

The theme of this vote is Movers and Pushers, and the contestants are some of the more subtle, secretive, sly and manipulative secondary characters in the books and show. The voting ends at 12:30 pm on the 20th, so you’ve got a week to make sure your character wins.

Good luck!

Character Themed Meals- Daenerys Targaryen

We’re dealing with this Wednesday slump by daydreaming about food. Is it any wonder?

Next up in our character themed meals is

Daenerys Targaryen

She’s hot, she’s confident, and she’s a total bad-ass. She embraces each new culture she encounters, folding them into her expanding empire.

Your best suggestions will get incorporated into a meal fit for the mother of dragons. So give it your best shot: What dishes do YOU think typify Daenerys Stormborn?

Out thoughts so far include Mottled Duck Eggs, Sweet Wine with a touch of spice, roasted grapes, and honey cinnamon roasted chickpeas… And no, we’re not serving a stallion’s heart!

Character Themed Meals- Robert Baratheon

Alright, so here’s the idea.

We’re going to put together some meals that we think really represent some of the characters in GoT, starting with

Robert Baratheon

Big and boisterous, the lamentable late king was a lover of life, drink, women, and food, although not necessarily in that order.

So here’s your chance to give us your best: What dishes do YOU think typify Robert Baratheon? We’ll take the best suggestions and combine them to make an epic meal fit for a king.

We’re thinking Dark Beer, Wild Boar Bacon and an assortment of Tarts… ;)
