Souvlaki in a pita, avgolemeno soup. One Greek restaurant called Zorba’s in Toronto used to stay open until 4 am on the weekend.

Kraft Dinner (Kraft Mac + cheese in Canada)

Poutine

Club sandwiches

General Tso chicken. Many restaurants in Toronto’s Dundas and Spadina Chinatown are open late.

Quite a few pho places are open, as are a lot of restaurants in Koreatown.

I’ve never had Vietnamese food or Korean food after the bar.

At home, if I’m hungry after a party, it’s usually a fried egg sandwich, or peanut butter and honey on toast. Or cinnamon toast.

If I have already been drinking, I try not to throw a lot more food after it because, inevitably, it never digests well and I’ll be up later. But sometimes it’s hard to resist pizza, mozzarella sticks, wings, jalapeno poppers, etc. There’s a braised e-fu I had somewhere in Soho during a semester abroad in London after rather a lot of red table wine that is still one of my favorite food memories…

If we’re talking next day recovery, I generally want something savory and spicy, like a breakfast taco or burrito. Lots of hot sauce.

We have a lovely Chinese place in town, and their noodle soup has saved me more than once from a bangin’ hangover.

Pizza rolls and three cheese ranch. Always around for edible nights. Also grilled cheese, and no judgement please… a sandwich, toasted with mayo, brick cheese and cucumber. Squish it just the slightest. Never cut in half or quarters. Heaven

For me, drunk-iness doesn’t steer me toward any particular foods or flavors, but I’m more likely to overindulge with anything at hand. If anything, I’m drawn to crunchy chips or nuts.

Stone-iness on the other hand… Pizza hot or cold, pasta and noodles richly dressed, Mex classics, Philly cheese steaks, ice cream. THAT list is pretty much endless.

I’d take chowder fries over war fries any day of the week.

All yours :smile:

Forgot about late-night steamed dumplings, i.e. har gow, shumai, soup dumplings — ready in no time and so satisfying :yum:

Tom Colicchio - on a season of Top Chef - referred to Ed Cotton’s presentation of banana fritters with chili paste the “ultimate stoner food”. I’ve never made them, but they’ve been on my list ever since.
