5 things to eat before you die

The Traveler's Lunchbox is holding an interesting "tag-event" of listing 5 things to eat before you die.

Here are my 5 in no particular order:

1. An oyster's po-boy from Chris' in Lafayette, LA
2. Nabil's tabouli and kibbe from Cedar's grocery in Lafayette, LA
3. A char-dog (with everything) from Wiener Circle in Chicago
4. Family style at Salt Lick, outside of Austin, TX
5. BOILED CRAWFISH - mmm-mm mais, ca c'est bon!

Honorable mentions - A pastrami with a knish at Manny's, Hula Hut's fish tacos and fresh salsa, and Bistro 110's whole roasted garlic with warm, crusty french bread.

OK, so now I tag 5 people to write their list on their blog: Mary, Sam, Eric, Sarah and Kayhan Ruud (are you still out there, Mr. Ruud??). My mouth-watering apologies to Kayhan - he produced a delicious list. Consider him unstricken.

Go to town ... while I go grab something to eat...

UPDATE:
OK, so I just remembered... when I first read about making this list, I thought of my #1 item and then completely forgot to include it! However, I think there is a chance Eric would mention it. So, I'll respectfully wait until he makes his posting ... and then I will give this food a whole posting shout-out. By the way, I would LOVE to tag many people, but not everyone has a blog. However, if anyone wants to e-mail their list to me, I'll happily post it to share with others ... or just use the comments section below.

Update 2: I made my list things that others could "easily" try. Therefore, my mom's amazing food failed to make this list. Because then I would have all y'all pounding on her door demanding (CONFIDENTIAL). Once again, I am going to respect Eric's possible selections and not mention Mom's specific food. That too will get its own posting soon.
