This dish had mushrooms and I could taste the Marsala wine/Sherry combination. I told the waitress this is not Veal Francese. She spoke to the cook who confirmed that he had made it with garlic, Marsala and Sherry. I informed her that a. -- the veal was not cooked "Francese" style which means that the veal is first floured THEN coated with egg and fried. And, b. the traditional Francese sauce is made with butter/olive oil, white wine, chicken stock, lemon, S&P and parsley. Although the waitress didn't have a clue, to her credit, she googled it on her phone and verified my recipe.

I was annoyed and wanted to made a big deal out of it but my overly sweet, complaisant husband prevented me from doing so -- "it's my dish and I'm not complaining" -- he is a lot nicer than me!
