Macaroni and Cheese Meets Chicken Unicorn

Have you ever wanted to create the "ultimate" dish? The type of dish that makes you sigh as you say the word? "AHHH'l-ti-mate." You think to yourself. A sort of Macaroni and Cheese meets Chicken Unicorn dish... 

​Isn't the quest for the "ultimate" ingredient, taste, preparation or technique what keeps us cooking? Isn't creating an "ultimate" dining experience what keeps us traveling and learning and tasting? Isn't cooking the "ultimate" form of love and sharing? 

​If you answered "yes" to at least one of these questions, and I know you did, Dear Readers, you are my kind of Dear Readers. 

​My "AHHH'l-ti-mate" dish changes, depending upon the where, the when and the who. My "AHHH'l-ti-mate might be strawberries from the garden in June eaten while still warm from the sun. It might be butter and bread in Paris in April with views of blooms all around or it might be a sumptuous standing rib roast on Christmas Day. It could even be a nice cup of tea made for you especially by someone who loves you.

​Each of these dishes is my "AHHH'l-ti-mate Macaroni and Cheese meets Chicken Unicorn dish.  Each dish involves an experience. 

​Please share your "AHHH'l-ti-mate dish and the where, when and who associated with it in the comments section.
