POKERGURU PRESENTS (Archive) - CONTEST: Our Dinner Date - Winner Announced! PokerGuru - 21.10.2007, 10:53 Post subject: CONTEST: Our Dinner Date - Winner Announced!Hello Pcers!
I am going to enjoy reading what you write in this contest!
This is what you do for a chance to win $30:
I have a small private plane. If I were to invite you to honor me with the pleasure of your company for dinner, whether you are male or female, and told you this is what I prefer, what would you choose?
I prefer: that you choose any country in the world, and allow me to treat you to the best restaurant in that entire country.
1) Which country....and why?
2) Since I arranged for us to get the menu with no prices listed for anything, what would your choices be for dinner? Please be specific!
That is all. That is the entire contest! Have fun deciding!
Deadline: last day of the month.
Remember: You must have 3000 PC points to redeem for your cash if you win. If you do not have 3000, you will receive 3000 PC points in lieu of the cash, so you will have them next time you win.
Remember: If you win and live in the USA, you must PM Geno, if you have not already (only once is necessary) and give him youe QuickTender account number. Everybody, no matter where you live, must have an online banking site that we also use, so we will know where to send your money.
Remember: Instead of the cash, if you win, you may choose Crusher merchandise of an equal value. Find our Crusher store in the dark red area at the top of every page and have fun browsing. I can usually be found, around my house, wearing Crusher tee shirts or sweatshirts and drinking from a Crusher mug or stein. The quality of the merchandise is superior!
Winners will be chosen at complete and total blind random, so every entrant has a chance of winning. (If people start slacking off in the quality of their entries, just to get something entered, that pratcice will change and only the entry judged the best will win!) (Yes, the Guru has to be a meanie and run a tight ship, in order to assure fairness to all.)
OKAY! WHERE SHALL WE GO AND WHAT WILL YOU HAVE ME ORDER FOR YOU?kkrisqmb - 21.10.2007, 13:01 Post subject: dinner contest

I would pick Greece, my choice for a dinner meal would be Greek Lamb Kabobs, with yogurt mint salsa verde
I Pick Greece due to the fact that Greek Cuisine is soooo very tasty and very highly reccomented by most critics, including myself

Well I love pastry so I think Paris, France beckie33 - 21.10.2007, 16:55 Post subject:
I would love to visit Japan..I have always been intrigued by their culture..not sure why. As for a menu...although not Japenese cuisine I would choose broiled lobster tail with hot drawn butter, baked potato with sour cream and steamed asparagus and of course a glass of Robert Mondavi Chardonnay valeria - 21.10.2007, 17:58 Post subject:
My choice would be Czechoslavkia. Why on earth there? Well my ancestors are from there. A very distant relative of mine used to rule the country. I am half Czech. I always wanted to visit there.
Menu choice. hmmm I love their pastries that my mother used to make when I was a child, but I really don't know their cuisine. So I would have to try everything possible I could fit into a dinner LOL
I used to have some Czech cookbooks but have lost them over the years But I couldn't read them anyway lol
Otherwise, my choices are always shrimp, lobster or clams depending on where I am at kaska321 - 22.10.2007, 02:41 Post subject:
I would love to go to Warsaw ,Poland. Once because I was born there, secondly because I consider the food as a pleasure when combine with people you eat food with . I can honestly said that polish people know how to have the fun . Money is not an object of desire in life as much as here , that`s why when you dine in Poland you enjoy atmosphere more then anywhere else.

The country I'd most prefer would be Canada, Nova Scotia to be precise. So the travel would only ivolve you flying here, because I am already here. The restaurant would be "Spooks Celtic Heavenly Eatery" located right here in my living room. For an appetizer we could have Nova Scotia mussels steamed with green onions and white wine, with a small serving of Maple Glazed Nova Scotia smoked salmon. As a main entree we would have Nova Scotia Lobster boiled in real sea water and dulse, served with new potato salad with fresh dill and red onions. I think for dessert we can have a Nova Scotia Blueberry Cream cake with freshly whipped cream and served with Nova Scotia Ice Wine. OK thats it...getting hungry...gotta run!!
SPOOK

Already there Val,too bad I don't like seafood.
I have always wanted to see Australia.I loved all the shows and what I have read about the country.It looks very relaxing and yet full of exciting things to do and see.
My choice of meals is fairly simple as I'm not into gourmet cooking.
I would have a bowl of homemade vegetable soup with homemade bread to start.Main course would be a filet mignon wrapped in bacon[well done] with home fried potatoes and whole baby carrots.Dessert would be a good slice of homemade lemon meringue pie.
