[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 12589, member: 1697"] LOL I have never had buttermilk. My dad is from southwest rural MN. My mom is from chicago suburbs, my stepdad from rural Indiana near the Amish, my 2nd stepdad from tobaccco farms in KY. My husband mom from depression era rural alabama transplanted to mountains of VA. My father in law from Boston. My mom all my growing up years and then me from age 12 till 32 worked in chicago suburb Greek owned coffeeshops. - Breakfast, lunch, dinner, salad bars, flaming greek cheese (Saganaki), gyros, ouzo etc....YUM! I think until I was 35 I ate just about every meal on non holidays in those restaurants. Our area has Carsons Ribs, and Portillos Hot Dogs and Ginos East Pizza. Rosatis is awesome pizza. Vaughns is incredible broasted chicken. We have outstanding Italian Beef (I love italian beef, did not like any philly cheesesteak I tried, I also did not like any hotdogs I ate out east) Elis Cheesecake. Brachs candy. We have Dunkin Donuts and Baskin Robbins ice cream and Krispy Kremes (over rated or maybe I OD'ed) Culvers. At home Tuesday is Prince Spaghetti day, always. Friday is out for fish fry. We LOVE turkey. and tuna casserole and Mac and Cheese, homemade, baked, or even Kraft out of a box. Meatloaf...smoked :censored: ans spinach, corn beef and cabbage. Pot Roast........salmon patties, chicken pot pie (with pie crust not noodles) I MISS Magic Pan Creperie.....YUM! There was one at Woodfield Mall. I make rolled and cut sugar cookies personally for any holiday or special event, cut in shapes to fit the theme and painstakingly decorated. Personally I hate jello. Becuz of the melting pot from which I came and husband came......I really am not SURE just exactly WHAT is northern IL chicaago suburb fare, LOL.
