Not in Canada. I can't quite pin down the best thing I ever ate, but there are a few candidates. After living in St. Louis I know that "St. Louis style" usually means "the worst possible way of preparing something that's good elsewhere", with a few notable exceptions. Slingers. I prefer slingers from the Courtesy Diner, which is just across the street from where the old barn used to be (for you hockey fans), chocolate creme brulee at Once Upon a Vine (now defunct), and the wings at Skeeters in south city (also defunct). The quest for the world's best chicken fried steak is ongoing, and I hope it continues for a very long time. Fortunately, CFS is rarely bad. Unfortunately, the very best is probably on someone's kitchen table and I'll never get to try it. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
