I'd vote for the Blues Brothers. I'd completely forgotten about that scene.

Actually I think the best scene from Big Night is at the end, when he silently makes an exquisite omelette.

What, no clips of Rocky punching sides of beef?!

Fun contest!

The winner HAS to be the lunch scene in Ferris Bueller's Day off..... Abe Froman- sausage KING of Chicago.
