My daughters do know how to ‘get to me’ at times! Karen was in New Orleans for the Reputation Institute annual Conference and she decided to ‘drop by’ the fine folks of Emeril’s Delmonico Restaurant in New Orleans! She definitely was ‘treated like a queen’ and then she did the most awful thing she could do… she sent me pictures of her meal!
Karen chose a wonderful selection. Karen wrote about her start: “My appetizer – a creole rice dish with pork – it was DIVINE!”
On the main course, Karen wrote: “The main course – pork chop with egg, bacon, and other delicious sides to make it one of the most enjoyable meals I have ever had!”
Ah, then comes dessert and Karen wrote: ” And the way to cap of the evening – a fabulous dessert! Corn bread pudding with honey ice cream, blackberries, and bacon (yes, I said bacon!) It was a true foodie heaven experience! :)”
Karen also noticed that they had a copy of the famous cookbook ‘the Epicurean’ , which was one of the turn-of the century cookbooks I gave my girls to start. After all, you never know when you will have to set a service for 24! 😉 Anyway, as Karen would say, ‘Dad did have ‘foodie envy!’ However, I am very happy that she had such a wonderful and fun experience!
“Bon Appetite” or as Emeril might say,”Bam! Bam ! Bam!”
