In the UK there's a sort of tradition - when you're in the 'after pub'
stage, you go for an Indian, and often order something far too hot for human
consumption (the Phall, or Pall is the usual menu description) - something
you'd never deam of eating when you're sober. What's the USian (sorry about
that term, it helps me to distinguish 'tween Canadians and the rest of you)
equivalent? In other words, what do Americans eat when they're drunk that
they wouldn't dream of eating when they're sober? Kebabs? (another drunken
Brit favourite), McD's?, Chinese food?

Just checking in case I ever find myself drunk and in America (which I won't
until you stop wanting to fingerprint me before I get there).

TIA (hic!)

When I lived in Tennessee, the answer for this was inevitably the
Krystal (fast food place that sells nasty little steamed hamburgers).
In fact, I'm pretty certain that no sober person has ever eaten at the
Krystal in Oak Ridge, TN.

Similarly, in Minneapolis, a popular sobering-up hangout was the White
Castle (near-identical fast food restaurant to the Krystal[1], except
that the little burgers have five little holes in 'em and are called
"Sliders").

[1] Now I've done it. Any minute the rabid Krystal and White Castle
fanatics will beat down my door and tar and feather me for daring to
equate the two, and then attack each other.

Often times it is a cheap greasy breakfast at a Waffle House.

Two eggs over easy
Hashbrowns scattered, smothered, and covered
crispy bacon
grits
toast
and coffee


Fortunately there is a late night chinese place nearby, but the options are
often limited in the wee hours.

I dunno, when I think of this scenario, I always think of sombody
being stoned, and not drunk. (ie; getting the munchies)
Then it's whatever they are craving at that given moment.

Nawwww, I live in Tennessee and I equate the two as well. We can purchase
frozen White Castle's down here and they are virtually identical as far as
I'm concerned. And you're right, I think Krystal's that's the normal
after-pub place to go. It's the only time I'd order a bowl of their "chili"

Nawwww, I live in Tennessee and I equate the two as well. We can purchase
frozen White Castle's down here and they are virtually identical as far as
I'm concerned. And you're right, I think Krystal's that's the normal
after-pub place to go. It's the only time I'd order a bowl of their "chili"

Well, I agree WCs are a traditional apres-drunk meal, but I'd dream of
eating them at other times as well.

When I was a college student it was a dozen fried chicken livers from

I haven't done the "pub" scene for years. But when I did I also favoured
extremely hot, spicy food. Mexican food comes to mind. Unfortunately there
are no Mexican places open after the pubs close so this had to be satisfied
the next day

In lieu of that (the same night), I believe what you call a fry-up fit the
bill nicely
