This new, expanded collection of Eddie Longo knowledge includes pages that go beyond the regular restaurant review strips that appeared in the Seattle ROCKET and the Everett Herald. Eddie likes pie. Coconut cream is his favorite, but he’ll finish off a slice of just about any pie that’s plated for him.
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day and Eddie would certainly agree that you gotta start off each day on the right foot. And that means a hearty breakfast. Eggs and sausage, hotcakes, bacon, waffles and omelets…he could go on and on about sittin’ at the counter and ordering breakfast.
But honestly, cuz, Eddie is all about SANGWICHES…all kinds of sandwiches, from all over this great country of ours…from the simple Loose Meat Sangwich in Iowa…
…to the mammoth Fried Pork Loin in Indiana…
…Eddie loves them all.
Usually you’d think of New York when you’re thinking Reubens, but Eddie is remembering a road trip through Nebraska and Reuben sangwiches he had in Lincoln and Omaha, the sangwich ostensibly invented by an Omaha grocer back in the 1920’s…
But there are a lot of states to travel to and dig into good sandwiches. A Sloppy Joe called The Dynamite, which hails from Woonsocket, Rhode Island, which is a sloppy joe burger made with onions, bell peppers, and celery. Eddie likes THIS one because it’s spicy!
Or the classic Cuban from Florida…
So you see, it’s not really a matter of what to add as much as what to include and what to leave out for a second ( or third) book.
