I have been looking for Fatz Cafe, Poppy Seed Roll Recipe. We had them On way
back from N.C. Oh so good, Please help if you can. Ina
Hello Ina,
I cannot locate a recipe or a copycat for those. Sorry. There are several unfulfilled
requests on message boards for that recipe. That's usually a pretty good sign that it's
not available.

Dear Phaedrus-
I am looking for a recipe that was inserted (via pamphlet) into various pieces of
Corning Glass Bakeware. The recipe I believe was called Corning Glass "Shake and Bake"-
ingredients are corn flake crumbs, salt, pepper, oregano, paprika and a couple of other
spices I do not recall. I used to use this recipe when I made oven-fried chicken while
working in a school cafeteria and the chicken was excellent & a best seller. I lost the
recipe several years ago when my home was robbed (I wrote recipe in an America Cooks
vintage cookbook which was stolen-can you imagine?!). Last November, I found a very
elderly gent (via internet) who had retired from Corning Glass (company no longer exists),
and he recalled the recipe and it's popularity. He thought he may have had a copy of it
in some of his paperwork (his name was o'donnell), but he was unable to find it. I have
looked through many recipe sites and done many searches trying to find this recipe, to no avail.
If it's possible, I really would like to have this recipe again, if you can find it.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Dolly
Hello Dolly,
There are lots of cornflake-crumb-coated chicken recipes, but I cannot find one that even
mentions that it comes from corning. You might try locating a corning-ware recipe booklet.

Hi again! You were such a huge help with my last request, so I knew that since I have
been unsuccessful in my quest, this is where I needed to come.
I am looking for a Bob Evans clone of their blueberry bread. It is a seasonal recipe
and I have tried many blueberry bread recipes, but none came close. I posted on the
Taste of Home website as well, looking for a clone, but no luck.
Would you be able to find one?
Thanks for your help!
Karen
Hi Karen,
I didn't find any recipes, but I found several requests for it, including yours on
Taste of Home. No one has responded to any of the requests. That's a good indication
that there's no recipe available, not even a copycat. Sorry.

Hello!
I discovered your web site while searching for a couple recipes. I have been
searching for so long for these two recipes and have even contacted the companies
but to no avail, I have come up empty handed!
Perhaps you have a magic site that leads you to hard-to-find recipes! I am a retired
chef and have over three hundred and fifty cookbooks, some from the 1800's, yet none
of them have been a help this time nor has Google, Ask.com, Copycat recipes or other
sites been a help.
As requested, I am making one request per e-mail, here is the first one;
From Kmart stores now defunct restaurants. (recipes were in notebooks distributed to
each store cafe back before the mid 1980's) A menu item was named 'Deluxe Burrito Plate
and I am searching for the green chili sauce that topped it. In the notebook it was
listed as 'green Chili Sauce. Made with ground beef, green chilies, flour, onion,
water, tomatoes and other ingredients. Delicious but I cannot remember how to make it.
I have high hopes that you can find it. One of the last stores to have the recipe
notebook was in Flagstaff, Arizona.
Many thanks,
Tanya
Hi Tanya,
Wish I could help, but I had no success locating this recipe.

Subject: Please, here is my second request for recipe help!
Hello again!
I hope that this finds you well!
My second request is for a restaurant recipe from the Piccadilly Cafeteria that
was located in Thomas Mall at 44th Street and Thomas Road in Phoenix, Arizona.
The mall closed down in the 1990's and the restaurant closed before that. As a
child I was in love with their 'Seafood Casserole'. It was served in individual
casserole dishes, oblong in shape and they held probably two to three cups of the
food. The recipe itself was similar to a bread or cracker based stuffing but loaded
with seafood. I think it was a whitefish and shrimp mix. Served with a tartar sauce
it was oh-so good! There was no rice or noodles in it and it was not layered but was
a mixture. I wrote to a restaurant chain in the southeast by the same name but have
not heard back yet. I have no idea if it is the same company or not. This one in
Phoenix was a cafeteria where you went through the line, like a buffet, picked out
individual dishes and loaded your tray. Then you paid at the end of the line. I
always had the casserole, steamed broccoli or spinach souffle and slow baked egg
custard. Yes, I was a strange child!
Thank you again for helping me! Please contact me should I ever be of assistance
to you. Some of my cookbooks are highly specialized including one from the civil
war that the Army used and very small, small town groups books.
Blessings,
Tanya
