Ones I've had. Meme borrowed from the article of the same name on Wikipedia.
Misc. dishes:
(Arizona) Cheese Crisp: Even though Mexican restaurants here have given everyone chips and salsa for a long time, the cheese crisp has been an extremely popular. If you've ever been in a restaurant when one went to another table you'd know why. Basically it's just a giant wheat flour tortilla smothered with a mix of cheeses and treated like a pizza then cut into squares before being brought to the table. Garnish with jalapeno slices if you desire. The chips and salsa may just sit on the table. But you rarely see any cheese crisp pieces left behind. Way better than anyone's nachos and less messy. (I've never heard it referred to as an 'Arizona' cheese crisp anywhere.)
Biscuits and Gravy: Where I grew up only the poorest families ate it, but the kids of those families preferred it to fancier fare. Our more middle class version was Chipped Beef on Toast (aka SOS) and probably wasn't as good.( Read more... )
