This week is Top Ten Favorite Things To Eat or Drink While Reading. This is a fun topic but I don't really eat while reading? I will sometimes have tea or something cold to drink but I can't think of enough choices to make a list, so I'm going rogue. This list will instead be places I would love to eat or drink- as in imaginary places. I've been kinda wanting to do a favorite inns/ taverns post for a while anyways, so this is my chance.
The Green Dragon Inn of course! Even the name is great. Imagine staggering home through a peaceful Shire evening after overindulging at the Dragon. Sign me up!!
The Wayfarer crew mess, with Dr. Chef's amazing cooking and the view- they have that amazing hydroponic garden/ space view thing going. I imagine it a little like this.

Mos Eisley of course! After all, all the best pilots are there.
Back to Middle- earth at The Prancing Pony.
Here's a twofer from Braavos.
The House of the Seven Lamps
The Inn of the Green Eel.
Just watch out for little waifs.
The Last Resort (Venusville) from Total Recall. Maybe I don't want to go there.
Gilly's from Urban Cowboy.
Anywhere Harley is
Oh I love this topic! There are so many great ones in sci-fi and fantasy!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't really eat when I read either, so had to do a different topic as well.

I would be down to eat and drink in Middle-Earth! Those hobbits would drink me under the table though. :D
ReplyDeleteWhat an excellent take on the prompt!
ReplyDeleteI can think of so many fiction places I'd love to visit to try the refreshments. Like pretty much anywhere mentioned in Harry Potter haha. I'd love one of Mrs Weasley's dinners.

Love your twist on this week's topic! I'd definitely join you in The Green Dragon.
ReplyDeleteThat is a super cool twist on this week's topic! I would have to think carefully about this but, on top of my head, I would have to say the Two Whales Diner in Arcadia Bay (from the Life is Strange video game).
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE LOVE that tagline! And your take on this week's topic is genius! The Prancing Pony!
ReplyDeleteThis was an awesome twist. Great job.
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday.
I'd be nervous in Mos Eisley. Maybe if I just kept my head down and stayed quiet. And The Last Resort from Total Recall. Now there's a blast from the past. LOL And Gilly's! Oh my gosh, that movie... my family and I still quote the cheesy lines ("I'm sorry back to the first time I hit you." What a guy! LOL)
ReplyDeleteThis was a great post. Yes, Middle Earth would be filled with amazing meals for sure.
ReplyDeleteMy TTT.
So I'm totally on board with anywhere Harley is as I love her. Also, Pop's would be fun. I always wanted to visit Gilly's. I think it's because when I was young, my parents forced their love of country music on me.
ReplyDeleteOmg, I love your take on this week's prompt! 😍 I'm even more interested in reading Becky Chambers' books now! That hydroponic space garden looks awesome. And YES I've wanted to have a burger and shake from Pop's ever since I started reading Archie comics in middle school! Such a great list, Greg :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT post
Great idea for a topic! The Green Dragon would be my fist choice too.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely join you for a drink at The Green Dragon!!!
ReplyDeleteI like your spin on the topic! I also don’t eat while reading. It’s too messy. I would enjoy eating with hobbits, though. They have all the good food.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
I would be sacred to eat in the GoT world!
ReplyDeleteI loved Grave Mercy!
Anywhere Harley is was the best answer lol <3
ReplyDeleteI usually just have chips or something like that to nibble nearby.If I have something more then I eat it first then read.
ReplyDeleteGrave Mercy - loved that one! Have you read it?
Karen @ For What It's Worth
I like how you twisted the topic this week! I went completely rogue because I'm usually drinking water and that would be boring.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Debra Winger riding the mechanical bull, best part of the movie.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun twist to this theme! I'd go to Mos Eisley if you could guarantee that Han and Chewie would be there. :D
ReplyDeleteHahaha so you're a Harley fan Greg? Me too!
ReplyDeleteI would definitely get a milkshake at Pop's and read!
ReplyDeleteThe good news is you can actually go to the Star Wars cantina now.
ReplyDeleteFun take on the topic!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, Grave Mercy is a wonderful book :) I love what you did with this week's topic. I don't really eat while I read either.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to visit The Green Dragon and The Prancing Pony myself. :)
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT
I don't really drink anything while reading (if I did it'd probably be in the winter, and a cup of something hot), so I would never have been able to dream up a list; but this spin is fun! I have no doubt I could have found some fictional places I'd have liked to stop at for a bite to eat. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Green Dragon Inn, yes I'd be up for that.
ReplyDeleteThe Prancing Pony however I'd pass... I don't imagine it'd be all that great.
I'm not a big muncher while reading either although I always have drinks on the go.
Tsk, tsk, going rogue!
ReplyDeleteI love the cover and the red dress. Part of me wants to time travel just for like, an hour to medieval times or the Renaissance to wear something fancy, then leave again before I started a riot for spreading feminism and other heresies...
Great twist! I'd love to eat at Bilbo's hobbity house minus any Dwarves and their bardic outbursts. 😂
ReplyDeleteI love that tagline for Grave Mercy! I love your take on the week's top ten topic. You've chosen a number of places I wouldn't mind eating either.
ReplyDeleteOh the Wayfarer crew mess is a good one. I'd like to eat there as well :D
