If you are floundering for love this Valentines Day, then you can fill your loved one’s heart and stomach by preparing these foods based on my favorite restaurant…Crechale’s in Jackson, MS! This restaurant has always been mine and Ted’s “Date” place! Their Prime Filet Mignon wrapped with thick bacon melts in your mouth!(In 1979,it cost $6.50!!)
I am always fascinated by the waitresses deboning the Whole Broiled Flounder.
I have my own version of the Comeback Sauce that they serve, but I can’t share it! Comeback Sauce is a Mississippi dip/dressing that originated in the local Greek Jacksonian restaurants like Crechale’s, The Mayflower, Primos,The Elite,and Dennery’s. It is best served on a saltine cracker!
I hope you treat your Valentine to a fabulous meal so you won’t be “Floundering for Love”!
As always, Cook from the Heart
