next time you're in the drive through, ask them if you can get your meal to go. The reaction is priceless.

Drive thru... Burger King... Hubby didn't think of fixing anything because he didn't know what I wanted. The next day, that's when he made up for it and fixed all-American food.




Hmmmm... we have drive thru in Pinas so we're not really new to this. But if it's just to make yourself or them crack up, why not.

Mine too, Drive thru Burger King too, thats it!

When I got here, I stayed with my Tito Boy for a few days where my then-fiance picked me up cross-country. Hehe. So, my first meal was actually leftover chicken adobo. With rice, of course.

can i also include "my fiancee's homecooked recipe" on the list??

waffle house

This is a funny poll because I remember my husband's first meal (so I voted on behalf of him).

He ate a huge cheeseburger with fries from Applebees, and he really liked it. I was in Brazil with my hubby and my best friend picked us up from the airport and we were starving. We drove from Miami to Jupiter (West Palm) before we sat down to eat. It was a great meal - topped off with my husband's first taste of Budweiser, which he still prefers to this day.

I honestly don't remember my first meal. I was too traumatized by the separation from my home and loved ones.

Nice hot plate of STFU.

No really, he pissed me off a lot that evening.

I think we ended up eating at some truck stop McDonald's on the way back to Indy. I really don't remember that well.

Well he moved to Boston when he was 15. I doubt he remembers

Taco Bell. First and last time I ate there. But I was starving, so wtf

For my first meal, I had New York steak.

It was a salad from Wendy's LOL
I remember hating the desserts due to them being too sweet.

I tld hubby before I came that I wanted to go to In&out burger when I got here so that is where we went..

Taco Bell! I really couldn't wait to go to Taco Bell!

My husband took me to Outback Steakhouse and i had a T-bone steak , a salad and pink lemonade as my first meal.

Drive thru at McDonalds...Southern Style Chicken Burger, French Fries and a cold Coke! Aaahhh!

Semi-desi dish (partly-curried chicken with brown rice) prepared and provided by Lily Aunty.

since, i had little food in the house and it was late..i made sanita a fried horsecock sandwich and gave her a bag of funyuns

@ Dean

Javi's first meal was ribs at Fatz. He had requested we eat there when he got back so we did just that. Got off the plane in Charlotte, drove to Morganton, and ate at Fatz.

Red Lobster

Home cooked, my moms place.

wow! my wife isn't here yet but i haven't put much thought into this.

any suggestions? my wife is Chinese.

Simple solution: you cook Chinese.

chinese take out

she's been eating chinese since she was born, you have to introduce her to american food, like something typically american, like pizza hut or one of the billion fat food chains, like Burger King, or mexican-american food like Taco Bell.

yeah that is what I was going to say...

Take her out for a nice meal at a good, local restaurant. Or cook for her at home. She may be tired from traveling. There will be plenty of time for fast food in the years to come.

sushi

I should have answered my husband was my first meal. during the flight and right after. There.

I HAD A NICE ROMANTIC MEAL PLANNED FOR JUST THE TWO OF US AT HOME AND THEN MY 18 YEAR OLD SON HAD TO BE THERE!!! HAHAHA

Was the horse-cock home grown?

lol...it is a soutthern, i think, slang for bolonga ..and no, i did not give her that....

I had no idea what that was. Nor funyuns, either. My friend always calls hotdogs lips-and-@ssholes, though.

On reaching our home in Balto--leftovers of home-cooked desi (but mixture of regions) meal.

left-overs? brother sriniv

I'd cooked the meal on 2006/04/11 and left it in the fridge--so it was available 2006/04/17.

good man as always..and thinking ahead...

I made a nice Indian rice meal for him at home, of course!

He got here at like 10pm, his flight from Miami to Tampa kept getting delayed. He was hungry and tired so his first US meal was a 7 layer burrito from Taco Bell through the drive through. He liked it. The next day he had some better food.

After 3 days of Nigerian's spicy dishes, I spent the time in American restaurants at the hotel. My husband had filet mignon and steak for the first time. We will take him to have steak the first night. Pizza the 2nd night.

I made Marco's favorite......steaks on the grill, a side dish of home made spaghetti, salad, and garlic bread.... "He said.. if I go on like this I'm going to gain 20 lbs.......Well he's gain 18

My guy has gained 25 pounds in the 14 months he's been in USA.

A piece of pizza in the airport

I don't remember, but as it was breakfast, it was probably porrige.

I don't remember that. But I know whatever we ate I had to go an buy it to the supermarket, we had just gotten the appartment and we had no furniture, dishes, there was Milk in the refrigerator and Devil Dogs.

When hubby came in, they had cancelled his flight, and he had to shuttle from Newark, so he got to Philly like 1:30 in the morning, we went to a McDonalds Drive-thru....he absolutely hated it, I think it even made him sick

muthua's milk.

Olive Garden - still love the breadsticks!

the bread sticks and the salad and the strawberry margaritas are the only good things about The Olive Garden
