    Get your lawn chairs ready too, parking's gonna be a bear!

    Back when I lived in Boston, I drove a jeep. So I'd just park on the snow berms. Easy park.

    I don't know about ultimate, but I can offer this one to ya.

    Step 1: Get a baguette, let it sit out for the day.
    Step 2: In the evening, slice it on a bias, make your egg custard, and get those slices of bread soaking. Flip them a couple times during the first hour. Let sit overnight.
    Step 3: Cook up in butter.

    Egg custard for one baguette:
    5 large eggs
    .5c cream
    1c milk
    .25c sugar
    2T vanilla
    2-3 pony rum or whisky
    salt
    zest from one lemon
    pinch of allspice
    smidgen of nutmeg

    Mix everything except the liquor together, then add liquor last.

    Also... I like to make crusted french toast. A thick sourdough works well.

    Use milk, eggs, and cinnamon as you would typically to make your batter. Dip the batter-soaked bread into special k crumbs, fry in oil, and sprinkle with cinnamon.

    Then....top with either vanilla-infused maple syrup or get super rich and use a whiskey butter sauce.

    Add berries and a sprinkle of powdered sugar to make it look fancy.

    The whiskey butter sauce I use is appropriated from Mimi's cafe.

    http://www.mimiscafe.com/news/recipes/bread-pudding-whiskey-sauce.aspx

    ...because bread pudding is a sister to french toast.

    And this is what the special k crusted french toast should look like-ish. Mine looks shinier and I use different bread, but you can get creative.

    Mimi's was one of my favorite chain restaurants in the early 80s.
