Secret menu in Chino

New Orleans was, as you'd expect, awesome. Also, still devastated from Katrina and Rita. I'll write about both aspects in a column or two in the coming days. I'll probably blog here about the food.

In the meantime, comments left last week have been posted. Let me direct your attention in particular to a belated comment for the Cock-a-Doodle calendars post left by an unnamed server there. He offers some informative comments on the venerable Chino restaurant, including a report on its "secret menu." Shades of In-N-Out!

No, you can't get the biscuits and gravy Monster Style, but the inside tips about the strawberry shortcake and other items is well worth a read, as well as his fond remarks about Albert the cook and Dotty the waitress.
