Cigars and Food
 

How many of you have cigars while eating? Do you smoke at the dinner table?

Last weekend I went to an Italian restaurant in the Bronx and they allowed us to smoke and eat at the same time; how wonderful! Many times we have cheese and cured meats out while smoking at my house, but never a full blown dinner and cigars...

Dinner table smoke at my house is normally after dinner...

At my golf club they have steak & cigar dinners on a monthly basis during the spring/summer. Smoking a cigar and eating a big, fat, juicy steak is like heaven on earth.

This is just my 2 cents: I enjoy a cigar after a meal, but never during. To me no matter how good the meal or cigar is, I could never smoke and eat at the same time. The thought of it turns me off. Just my opinion

Re: Cigars and Food
 

I smoke during meals all the time. A good scotch, steak, and cigar makes for a wonderful evening. Though I'll smoke while eating just about anything.

I used to think that smoking and eating was a bad combination until I started trying it at cigar events. Now I think it's great. I love the mixture of tastes and smells.:ss

Yeah, I don't know if I'm up for that. Not knocking those of you who do but I just don't think that's my cup of tea. I prefer a smoke free environment when I'm eating.

the MoB crew went to a restaurant that allowed smoking once and I believe we smoked during appetizers but not during the meal.

Not with full blown meals. Ive eaten dark chocolate while smoking but thats about it.

They allowed you to smoke in a restaurant in the Bronx? That's very unusual with NYC's public indoor smoking ban. How late was it?

Re: Cigars and Food
 

I've had a smoke during appetizers, and as long as it was light, I had no problem. But a full blown meal was kind of weird with the flavors overwriting each other; the cigar tasted like chicken kiev.

Re: Cigars and Food
 

I don't like the way it makes my food taste.

The wife won't let me at home... but it happens all the time at the B&M or at local Cigar Dinners. :ss

Re: Cigars and Food
 

that's grotesque. just my opinion...

my mother-in-law smokes cigarettes while eating - bear in mind, i'm a reformed smoker myself - and that would make me sick as well.

Re: Cigars and Food
 

Don't usually smoke and eat at the same time BUT since I work pt in a B&M I do eat while there's smoke in the air. No probs. :tu

Re: Cigars and Food
 

I have to be careful otherwise I smoke my food and eat the cigar! :ss

Re: Cigars and Food
 

Some foods Yes others NO

Re: Cigars and Food
 

I don't mind snacking on meats while smoking, but I don't think I'd enjoy a full fledged meal with a cigar

Bacon makes everything better, this includes cigars

Re: Cigars and Food
 

cant say that i do. i seem to focus on the food a lot when eating or the cigar when smokeing. the one that i am not watching will get cold and i dont like that.
