The Five Things to Eat Before You Die Meme

Last year I was tagged for the previous outing of this meme by Mona . When you've just been diagnosed with cancer for the second time in 18 months the word "die" is not something you want to think about let alone consider which five foods you need to eat. This time around I've been tagged twice and so in the interests of research by Melissa I've decided I can cope with participating.
5 FOODS TO EAT BEFORE YOU DIE
Iberico jamon - Unbelievably this was part of my last meal in Santiago de Compostella before visiting a doctor in Portugal the following day and being admitted to hospital for emergency life saving surgery.
Blue Manna Crabs - caught at Busselton Beach, best eaten with family and friends and served from a table covered with newspaper with just a touch of lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt.
Black Iranian Caviar - I love caviar but have only had the cheaper versions.
Foie Gras - Preferably prepared and served by friends who live in Gascony. But I'll always order it when it's on the menu.
My 87th Birthday Cake - I used to say I wanted to live until I'm 100 but I'll settle for 87.
I won't tag anyone but feel free to participate if you haven't already been tagged.
Great list Barbara! When you celebrate your 87th or 100th I may fly down to New Zealand to have a glass of bubbly and Iranian caviar w/ you....

What about five local things to eat before you die?

Bruno - I look forward to it. Hopefully I'll be living in Queensland then so make it Australia.
Ian - Hmmm - I have to think about that - Pineappple lumps stored in the freezer would top the list - then Gnocchi at Euro - Grape Focaccia sold at the Takapuna Markets by the baker fron Silverdale - Roasted Heuvel Chicken - and definitely roast kumura

Fantastic answers Barbara, thanks heaps for taking it on. I would also love to come to your 87th birthday party and share in your cake.
Ian, my 5 things were a little more local.
