My parents first off...then (don't laugh), my inspiration was Justin Wilson and Leah Chase but we're talking a long time ago. Can't tell I'm Southern gal, can ya? Nowadays, Ina, Paula, Bobby, Mario...Can't name them all. Thanks Food Network!

Hola! Thanks for your help! Now to decide which to use.....

"Garlique's", everything with garlic. Appetizers, soups and main dishes... I'll just bet some creative minds out there would have some dessert ideas too! Maybe baked apples/pears with a melted garlic cheese...

Lemons is a good one too!

Galatoire's is wonderful but if you want another version just as good, here's is Commander's Palace, also from New Orleans:

1/4 c. Creole mustard (or Dijon mustard)
2 tbsp. paprika
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. salt
1/2 c. white vinegar
1 c. finely chopped green onions
Dash of Tabasco sauce
1/2 c. finely chopped celery
1/2 c. ketchup
1/2 c. prepared yellow mustard
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 eggs, room temp.
Juice of 1 lemon
1 1/3 c. salad oil
80 med. shrimp, peeled, deveined and boiled

1. Put all ingredients for the sauce except the oil into blender container. Cover and mix at high speed until well blended.

2. Remove cover and gradually add the oil in a steady stream. Sauce will thicken to mayonnaise consistency. Chill.

3. Boil or saute shrimp until done. Let come to room temperature. Serve topped with remoulade sauce.
