Everywhere I go I run into people who were Hizzoner's customers.   Invariably they tell me how much they miss the food, the people and the good feelings they had.  Many have asked for recipes or suggested that I do a cookbook.   So, I decided to do the best of both, hence this website.  Here you will find all the things you loved most about Hizzoner's and some of my favorites too.  Come, taste and remember.

All The Favorites You Remember And More

 

Kentucky Derby Pie | Print |
This is a decadent chocolate pecan pie.  The name of this pie tells you Kentucky Derby Pieit's history.                                                   

At Derby time there a lots and lots of parties and luncheons on the lawn and this pie was a favorite.  It is still served but not just at Derby time.  There is a restaurant which has patented the name "Derby Pie" but there are several variations out there.   This one is the best, in my opinion.
