Apple 'n' Prosciutto Sandwiches

This is a recipe I got from Taste of Home but has become a favorite among my family. I beg you not to leave out the apples if you make this.

olive oil
chopped walnuts
grated parmesan cheese
fresh rosemary
thinly sliced prosciutto
thinly sliced apple
Brie cheese, rind removed
any kind of bread you want

I layer the prosciutto and apples and spread the brie on the bread. Sprinkle with walnuts, Parmesan, and rosemary. Then rub olive oil on outside of bread and cook like a grilled cheese just until browned and cheese is starting to melt. This sandwich will melt in your mouth and leave you wanting more!

The End of a Fine Establishment

As is the trend of fine restaurants in Mobile, AL, word has it that Guido's restaurant has closed its doors officially. Guido's was perhaps my favorite in a long line of unique restaurants i have tried in my 22 years. Guido's was established in two old houses where one served as the kitchen and the other as the dining room. Upon entering, one notices the chalkboard menu written by the morning chef that must be followed by the evening chef (it was never the same). Guido's served a fine assortment of soups, salads, and entrees that are often a blend of Cajun, Italian, and seafood. Ever present was a Mahi Mahi dish usually featuring an exotic homemade topping such as mango salsa. A fine steak was also a staple. Calzones, pastas, and jambalayas were also always on the menu. Portions were never a problem as the serving sizes were ample and every dish was served with garlic mashed new potatoes and fresh green beans. If that's not enough, the fresh baked herb bread with dipping sauce never runs out. For those who are ever in need of a palate cleanser as I am, the bread pudding with whiskey sauce was without a doubt the most delectable bread pudding I've experienced. The cake selection was never the same but among the best were the slabs of red velvet cake or Italian Creme cake that would rival Pollman's bakery's best. I will forever miss this quaint, unique establishment, but I hear rumor that there is still one open in Fairhope, AL
