What: Annual staff trek to Millennium RestaurantWhere: San Francisco, Calif.When: May 26, 2010Why: Southern-fried, artery-clogging extravagance. And Beer.
The Scoop: Not sure zackly how long we-all ben goin' to this-here Millennium Restaurant for its annual Southern Comfort Dinner, "an evening of embarrassingly unsophisticated family favorites," but we never miss th' family reunion or chance to stuff ourselves comatose with the down-right tastiest, anti-McDougall menu this side o' Tupelo.
Fer starters we had this ol' bucket of the finest suds money kin buy, seen here wetting the whistles of Miss Lyndsay and Miss Abby.
Olympia, Hamm's, and MHL. Only the best!
Dat's Miss Lyndsay and Miss Abby
Next was a trio of breads plus backyard-raised chicken wing "appeteasers," which left yo' mouth hotter than a half-bred fox in a forest fire.
Cornbread, Cheddar & Green Chili Bread, and Parker Houses Rolls with Pimento "Spam" Butter
Danielle's chicken wings, spinach non-skinny dip and chips
Not sure why we had such a healthy course, maybe health 'surence cause o' dat new law the Prez'dent passed. Check out dat feda cheese!
Fun's Over for the Greek Salad with gov'ment feta "cheese!"
There was a quartet of entrees, which is like four I think, and I'm glad you asked yes we had to try all o' 'em. Loosen yo' belt!
Chef Hot Carl's Roast, straight from the carving station
Dunbar's Missed Bris Minnesota Meatball Sub
Li'l Brother Nic's Crispy Tacos
The M. Crew topped off this bypass brouhaha with a sticky sundae bar jammed with more fixins' than allowed by law. We all managed to squeeze in the "sweat treat with no meats" before crashing and burning. Asked by Grand Ol' Chef Eric Tucker with satisfactory glee, "You feeling comatose?" "Yes." "Good."
The sundae bar included coffee bark, rice mellow creme, and oreos
Praise the Good Lord it's only once a year. See you there next May!

yummmm. i love millenium, and that dinner looks like an amazing treat....though too much wheat for moi. what a fun eve, lucky vegnews superstars!! thanks for making me hungry. xoxo
Nice stereotyping...and bonus points for the dialect. We ALL sound like that.
I agree with Justin. The stereotypical dialect turned me off even though the food looked delicious.
Thanks for reading Press Pass! This post was written with the same tongue-in-cheek spirit of Millennium's Southern Comfort night, and was certainly not meant to offend.
i agree with the other two, it sounds more like you went to a pro-slavery dinner than a white trash one.
Wow, this was linked from Cafe VegNews. How completely offensive! I hope this year's wrap-up isn't as insulting to us vegans in the South.
