Smothered burrito w/ side of bacon at Ballyneal (I'd eat anything if they put that green chili on it).

Merion, and then a steak sandwich at Pat's, followed immediately by a steak sandwich at Geno's is my most memorable golf and off-course combo (for me, Pat's was better, not even close).

The steak nachos and a round of golf at Sand Hills is hard to beat.

Had this discussion the other day, and candidates mentioned quickly included
Colonial and Chicken Fried Steak,

Jeff, that better be some fine chicken fried steak to keep me from immediately heading over to Angelo's or Joe T's.

Cheeseburger at Ben's Porch at Sand Hills.

Double cut two bone-in pork chop with honey mustard glaze and sweet potato fries at Dismal River.

Let's be real, Sand Hills and belching up the previous night's dinner is hard to beat.

Jeff - in my imagination, I will one day start a morning in late October with a traditional english breakfast at Walton Heath, in the company of a very old member, and after playing 18 with him will have a steak and kidney pie and a pint of the local brew in the company of the club professional, sharing stories and histories; and then after playing 18 more with another old member, I would have late afternoon tea, with shortbread cookies and those little sandwiches, and tea and milk; before playing a final nine alone as the sun went down and then retiring to my rooms to freshen up and dress for dinner with the Secretary, which dinner would be a vegetable soup followed by rare roast beef along a carafe of their finest claret, and then coffee.  And then I'd move to the lounge to sit by the fire with a glass of bourbon and a book. I have no idea if that's the type of food Walton Heath has, but in my imagination it should!

Peter

Sounds perfectly appropriate, but you might have to settle for a single malt (Scotch) whisky instead of the bourbon!  And no ice!

Some places have options. In Atlants, East Lake and the Varsity might be a good combo, if eating "off campus".

Just echoing what some others have said but from my experience, the dry aged beef selection after 36 holes at Sand Hills is pretty hard to beat, especially with the steak nachos as an appetizer.

Coming in a very close second is the steak dinner on the dock overlooking the fly fishing lake at Sagebrush with a nice glass of Okanagan red wine.

On a couple of occasions when I've had the pleasure of hosting VIPs at Wolf Point the maintenance crew has been kind enough to pit roast lamb served with homemade corn tortillas and green salsa accompanied by iced down Modelo Especial. I believe the guests approved of the menu and the golf. The fact that some of these guys are GCA members and they haven't listed me as the greatest greenkeeper in the world has endangered future invitations. (I should get nominated on the food alone)

On my regular Sat pm game we often keep it simple by grilling sausage made up of 60% wild pig and 40% venison, all harvested from the surrounding ranch land as part of our wildlife management program. We usually eat pretty well.

If you go to Pepe`s your sanity will most certainly be questioned if you don`t stop at Libby`s Pastry next door when you are done for a canoli. A good down card would be Louis Lunch where the hamburger was invented. Just remember two things-cash only and no ketchup.
I would also nominate the Orchards for golf with dinner to follow at the Student Prince in Springfield for some of the best German food to be found. Forget the menu and start with a bowl of goulash, house salad with table side prepared roquefort, wienerschnitzel with red cabbage and home fries, and finish strong with hot apple strudel and vanilla ice cream. This place also has one of the premier beer stein collections anywhere. If you can even muster the energy to make it back to your car you might as well walk the couple blocks to the Mardi Gras for entertainment of the adult kind with as many curves and slopes as the Donald Ross greens at the Orchards. ;)

Many moons ago, at KP I, JB, JK, Gib?, perhaps a few others and I (A) played Barona Creek; (B) enjoyed libations at the US Grant; and (C) ate wonderful Persian food (barg, soltani and joujeh kabob, mostly) at the Persian joint with the red awning a couple blocks away.  Memorable to this day for me as one of the great golf/food combo days of my life,  

I want to think Wigler was there.  Where did we eat the night that King brought his Scotch tasting selections and Huntley told stories?  I would say that was the largest gathering of my life where I considered everyone in the room a friend.

Champagne for breakfast at Crail (no food taken)

Big minus for Royal Cromer - no champagne or Pimms for breakfast, letter sent to the Palace questioning their Royal status!

There has to be a Cincinnati person here....4 way chili and_______ for golf (my brother attended U of Cincinnati).

My brother & nephew did the Geno's v Pats cheese steak experiment 2 weeks ago.......As I recall they both liked Geno's a bit more as the provolne made a difference, but my brother liked Pat's roll more.
