Indianapolis, Indiana

Is it possible to write a description of Indianapolis without mentioning the Brickyard and Indy 500 in the very first sentence? Well, no. But no matter, once the roar of the Indy cars fades out, Indianapolis still hums with hungry Midwesterners seeking out satisfying food and drink. And there’s plenty here to satisfy. If you’re feeling flush, drop by St. Elmo Steak House for the signature jumbo shrimp cocktail in a hot-as-the-dickens horseradish sauce and a juicy steak. Or for a less spendy time, simply have a beer at the ornate old oak bar that was first brought out at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893. If an old-time diner is more your style, check out the Fountain Square Diner, restored to all its 1950s-era glory, including a working soda fountain and Rock-Ola jukebox. The malted shakes are thick and rich, and the fries are crinkle cut. Folks can fuel up before the Indy 500 at the Champions Pasta Dinner and the annual pre-race breakfast. The event itself is a tailgating spectacle beyond equal.

Easy Tuna Casserole

Reviewed on Nov. 16, 2008 by MARCIA99116
I also made changes to this. I pulled up the recommendations and doubled everything, added milk, some suggested seasonings and more cheese. I liked it, tasted just like I remember but better!

Spanish Rice Bake

Reviewed on Nov. 16, 2008 by JM
I gave it 5 stars cause the taste is very good, but even after reading the reviews my rice was still hard, I even simmered it longer and cooked it longer and still my long grain rice was hard, so I think next time I will either cook the rice first or use a short grain or quick cook rice cause the rest was excellent. I served with a side of mixed veggies and some biscuits and it was yummo.

Chicken Pot Pie I

Reviewed on Nov. 16, 2008 by Luv2BakeGirl
Per other reviews, I added garlic powder, celery salt and dried minced onion to the mixture along with a sprinking of parmesan cheese across the top of the filling before putting the crust on. Very well received by my husband who ate three helpings! Delicious!
