Here is the second poll, about dates for the L&O dinner. I chose a Tues., Weds., or Thurs. because the restaurants I talked to could work with a large group better on those days. I also chose month & date when the crowds will have thinned out.

Note to all: I left both polls open for 7 days. I will keep bumping them.

I laughed at your post.......however, it was one of my mom's and my stepdad's favorites.........it was even served at their senior citizen center.

I would make it for my mom when she came to live with us. It smells great when you are prepping it by first soaking the calves liver in milk.....then frying up the bacon so that you can saute the flour coated calves liver in the bacon fat........first of course, saute a big mess of vidalia onions.....

Serve with mashed Yukon Gold potatoes...........

So, liver and onions and mashed potatoes........way back when, the elders loved it.

My husband would not touch it. My thought has always been that the liver is the organ that detoxifies stuff in your body.

Is bump good or bad? Liver does have iron....

Back in the olden days, people didn't waste a scrap of the animals.....

Bump is used to keep a thread going. I have to bump it to keep the poll showing up so people who haven't voted wil have a chance.

Okay, 10 of you have voted on a date, but only 8 of you have voted on a place! Does that mean the other two don't care where?

So far it's Toojays on Weds.

One restaurant, I think the last one inn the poll, said their liver was veal liver. Isn't that the same as calf?

And yes, non liver-loving spouses and S/O's are invited, although they may want to bring clothespins along...

The only day we can go is on Tues. 9th. I'll have to order it at Vic Embers as we are going there on the 10th with the neighbourhood group and hubby's BD and our anniversary in on the 11th and we have plans with friends for that day.
The rest of the month is empty! Maybe I can get to meet y'all at Crispers.

There is another poll where people are voting for the restaurant. Currently Toojays is in the lead, with Hacienda Hills a close second.

Meanwhile, I will bump that poll up.

I am not qualified to vote in the poll because I've not yet moved to TV nor have I had a chance to eat at any of these restaurants when I visited. However, I am astonished over the people who like liver and onions. I have always loved it, but when I make it for myself, the family runs in the other direction.

My mother used to cook me calves liver and sauteed onions while growing up in Pittsburgh. Does the fact that you lived in Pittsburgh have significance?

Well, maybe so! Anyone who is from Pittsburgh and loves the same things I love from my childhood--must be a Pittsburgh connection! My husband is a Pgh. native and loves liver & onions too. Our kids, not so much, although our older son loves chicken liver pate.

Maybe it is a Pittsburgh thing. I'll enjoy liver in any form: calves, chicken livers, or chopped with raw onions. Unlike your son who loves the pate, my would rather eat dog food than liver. Then again, he wasn't raised in Pittsburgh as I was!!!

Okay, that's the answer! Our oldest was born in Columbus but we moved back to Pgh. just after he turned 1. so he thinks he's a native, and therefore likes liver pate, not to mention the Penguins. (Poor Sid and his broken jaw. They were doing so well.)
