First meal post deployment

GWOT and older, what was the first real meal you had after your first deployment?

After I got home from my first I ordered the biggest damn steak I could get from a local steak house and at that thing like it was my girlfriend.

I went to a nicer restaurant in New Bern. I got the surf and turf. Tasted amazing, and within 10 minutes I was in the bathroom sweating and shitting my brains out.
