Note to self–don’t push “send” until ready to send…  
Fenris, if you know of anywhere else to get good CFS in the EP/LC area, pass it on… I am so tired of Mexican food!

There is a place on the Upper West Side called Yippi Yi Yo. It’s on Amsterdam in the low 80’s I think. They have the best I CFS in NYC that I have encountered so far. Add to it that they will play Ella Fitzgerald singing the Cole Porter song book for background music and it becomes heaven for this Okie Escape.

For starters, I am obliged to applaud every word that **Fenris** has posted. If arteries were ever meant to be clogged by _anything_, by Jove, they were meant to be clogged by Chicken Fried Steaks! (Although the quote from **Chef Troy** ’s father sure rings true as well.)

[sup]I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.[/sup]

Thanks for posting the link, but I think you may have been referring to [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=88571) thread. Here is a direct link to the recipe in question.

For any of you whose gas or power is turned off there are flames enough in **Abe** ’s pit thread about me to cook a hundred CFS’s right now. All I would like to say is that when you see my culinary contributions at these boards, you see closest to the heart and soul of who and what I am.

With Much Affection,

Chris

PS: You are most welcome **Rockteer**. It is one of my most treasured and oldest recipes (from ~1962).
