Quite an Appetite

[This is from a food blog. Assuming they meant the Dance tour in 1997, I can't see Stevie eating like that in those days. By that time, she was already calorie conscious and intent on getting rid of the Klonopin gain. Sounds like Stevie from a couple of years earlier]

When I was a baby cook, back in 1996, and Fleetwood Mac was doing a reunion tour, Stevie Nicks came into the restaurant (Fog City Diner in San Fransisco) after a show, shall we say a bit messed up. Not quite a chili cheeseburger, Ms. Rhiannon proceeded to order, on one plate, 2 1/4 lb Hebrew National hot dogs, with homemade chili on them, garnished with chopped red onion, "alot of cheese" and sliced scallions...It looked like puke on a plate, but, damn, she ate it all....and signed the kitchen ticket for me....

Actually, I think that is an Atkins diet (she was on that then) dream

Eh, why not- everyone splurges once in a while.

Hey, When you Dance Across The Stages of the World you get hungry

Yeah, sounds right. Meat and cheese are the main things you can eat on the Atkins diet.

Wow, Fog City Diner. That's not too far from the Financial District hotels, where she has been staying when in SF.

That quote was actually from iwannacook. And this person actually corrected the original. BUT STILL! I somehow don't see Stevie walking into a diner in '96. But you never know.

"Sorry, for the typographical confusion, it was two 1/4 lb. doggies. Still the plate had two 1/4 lb. dogs, two 8 oz.scoops of sirloin and black bean chile' 2 large handful of dicede red onion, a bunch of diced scallions and probably 4 oz. of shredded cheese...needless to say, I'd party with her anytime, but, so then has everyone else....peace"

Hey, she stole my plate

Seriously though, this sounds like the Atkins diet but that's a lot of food....

I guess based on the riders we saw, I got the feeling she leaned more towards chicken.

I LOVE Fog City Diner.

It's more North Beach than Financial District though, although everything in the Financial District is closed by 7 or 8 anyways (which is a shame, because she probably would have loved Schroeder's... lol)

Well, hopefully the Fog City Diner stays open late because I'd hate to think Stevie had this meal before the show. I can't imagine doing the Stand Back twirls with a stomach full of chili dogs, beans, onion . . .

Well, in theory and given an adequate amount of time to digest, it could provide propulsion much like a pinwheel with sparklers attached

God Michele, can you imagine the breath on her after a meal like that?

One of the funniest posts I've read in a long time. Maybe Fog City Diner could cater to Stevie when she tours to keep her from having those lethargic moments onstage.

Yes, the tour rider now reads LOTS OF CHILI and one of those really long bar-b-q pit lighters to be handled by a roadie, likely the same one who did the blow in the mid 80's
