I served compound butters with different dishes. My customers loved
them. Here are a few you could play with.

This is the one I used most often.

I'm certainly going to be making the California Aioli!!
Although I *might* just cut the garlic down a little bit.



Where did the name Hizzoners come from?

When I used to go out and order steak, I always asked them for garlic
butter to put on it.

I used to *love* garlic butter on a hot steak... YUM!!

Yes, restaurants never use garlic.

You're an idiot and a troll.

I'm trying to get the message across to everyone else. Why they keep
responding to him is baffling me. I think they actually think he's
serious from looking at the responses.

The restaurant was on the 'civic' square with the city hall, county
courthouse, and public library. The name Hizzoner's referred to the
mayor as being the place for everyone in that area to eat.

Used to be a place in Lynnwood that served garlic butter with their homemade
bread. It was a Greek place that was bought out by some people who were
half Japanese. They eventually changed the menu and it became quite odd.
They kept a few of the Greek dishes but then added some other expensive
things and tried to make it upscale. The sad thing is, it was once a Rax
which was a fast food type of sandwich place that didn't last at all. It
was a chain. Not sure if it is still in business or not. So it wasn't an
upscale type of place to begin with and they did little in the way of decor
to warrant those prices. They had to close and now it is a crappy breakfast
place.

I don't care anything about the conflicts between you, Steve and Bob.
All 3 of you sometimes post things of value. The OP almost never
does.

Now you've done it! Swallows will stamp her feet and *forbid* you from
saying anything positive about her arch-enemies, or she'll "punish" you
the same way she "punishes" Jill!

I remember Rax Roast Beef. They were an Arby's with a much better
selection. I loved the Rax Stromboli. Doesn't look like it's on the
menu anymore. Only 5 stores left.

I've only been to one restaurant that put flavored butter on the table
to eat with the bread. It was a delicious garlic compound butter. As
far as putting compound butter on vegetables or meat, either it's not
done out here or I don't patronize the kind of restaurant that does
it. I think it's the former, because olive oil (flavored or not)
seems to be preferred over butter out here.
