MmmmmmmmmmmmMonteCristommmmmm. Love it! Copied them and will try them all. Gotta think about the graham cracker crusted one. Have you had it made by the Radisson or have you made it yourself - and if so, did you like it?

Oh, you reminded me of two other childhood favorite things. One was a "grandmother" thing. Welsh Rarebit! She made the *best.* We had it on toast points, with two slices of crisp bacon on top. I can't make it like hers. The closest I found for eating at home was Stouffer's - and they discontinued it a couple of years ago. Grrr.

Also, a triple-decker sandwich my dad used to make. MMM. Let's see - trying to remember the name of it. Duke of Windsor, I *think.* It was served at the restaurant inside the Dallas Neiman's - Zodiac Room, maybe? He had it first and raved about it, so we all had to go have one and then try to make them at home.

Not in the correct order, but the ingredients were 3 slices of lightly buttered toasted bread without crusts, sliced turkey or chicken white meat, shaved Smithfield ham, crisp bacon, very sharp cheddar cheese *spread* (Old English in the jar), mango chutney (Major Grey's used at home), sliced glazed pineapple (wet, like on a ham, not like the fruitcake type), mayonnaise (preferably homemade), shredded lettuce and maybe sliced tomatoes - I don't eat them, so I'm not sure if the real sandwich comes with them on it.

The order of placement in stacking is important, with "go-together" things in each segment, lol. It's not a tall sandwich, maybe pressed in a sandwich press or with a brick. Or because the meat is sliced, it's not bulky. I love this sandwich!

THE DUKE OF WINDSOR is still on menu at Neiman Marcus (web site): lists sliced smoked turkey, cheddar cheese spread, pineapple, and chutney on grilled egg bread. 8.00

You would never guess it was graham crackers unless you saw the recipe.
