You owe me a new keyboard as I promptly spewed soup all over this one..

(Should I add 'Charlotte Rousse' to the dessert menu...?)

Well, anything else I say at this point will border on mean. And, as you well know, I would never want to do that.

Sounds good to me.
Good luck Steve.

btw, I associate crab cakes with Pimlico...certain tracks with a food, if you know what I mean. Is there going to be something on the menu that once it's there, everyone says "Saratoga"? Just a thought.

Given a choice of having your town associated with Burgoo or nothing I would have to think nothing wins in a landslide.

my point is not WHAT the item is only that it is an old and historic track and has no signature food or drink item associated with it. I find that somewhat odd...I never said I ate that horrendous stew that is served at KEE.

See my above post ... the signature food at the Spa is the Saratoga Chip ...

... which you can wash down with the signature beverage ... Saratoga Spring Water.

While we're on the region's specialities... Don't foget Pie ala Mode!!

First served at the Cambridge Hotel (Cambridge, Washington County) around 1930 and exported to Delmonico's in NYC by Professor Charles Townsend who had "created" it by asking for it at the Hotel years earlier...

The Saratoga Chip, progenitor of American Potato Chips, are generally attributed to George Crum, or his sister, at the Moon Lake Lodge in 1853.

My God, have any of you people actually been there?

I do expect these annual traditons to soon be surpassed by "our Man" Steve's new delites.

Ahhh ... Chicken Sadie ... I remember enjoying her delights back in the 1960's ...

... or at least she would have made if she spoke English.

Certainly ... Saratoga Chips ...

... also known as "potato chips."

If you search all the highways and byways of Saratoga County ... you may be able to track some down.

Also ... take a look at the Ken Lay thread ... there's some commentary about "potato chips" there.

Ha Ha

Chips are so common, they are not unique to Saratoga.

Now, if you're talking "cow chips"...I'd asociate them with YOU!!!
