hhmm, fried Ice Cream... my curiosity is piqued :-?
Isn't fried ice cream the classic mexican restaurant dessert? Although I have to say, I haven't seen it on the menu at one for a while.

We can't forget the fact that the Scots fry everything - and I do mean everything. Shit, we even invented the deep fried Mars Bar (which led directly to Wilson's deep fried Snickers).

Sort of. Fried ice cream is the classic American idea of what should be on the menu of in a Mexican restaurant. I have yet to see fried ice cream on a menu in a restaurant in Mexico.

Sorry, that's what I meant. The classic dessert at a Mexican restaurant in America. Miles is always pointing out my little mistakes.

No problem, man. Really. I wasn't offended at all. You just always seem to catch when I say something not QUITE the way I meant it. You're my Jiminy Cricket. =:)

Oh, and while I agree with you 100%, I HAVE seen fried ice cream on a menu in both Tijuana and Mexico City. So there. :P

Definitely doesn't count either. More gringos = less likelihood of counting.

Last year at the NC State Fair the rage was deep fried pee-can pie.

Now that might just bring this thread back on topic again. Briefly. :roll:

I made reference to the same last year when Lavabe and I chuckled about our MIL's pronunciation of the nut that is shaped like an olive and has a smooth, thin shell.(pi kahn, pi kan, or pee-kan) That's as close as I get without a special keyboard, folks.

They'll deep fry ANYTHING. If you check the menu, they have fried chocolate (Snickers, Twix, Reese's, Mars, etc...). They also do a TWICE-fried cherry pie.

They also have a GREAT assortment of brews to be paired with what you eat.

CellR: check the soccer ads.

I must believe that the only brews to be paired with that kinda stuff are a Zocor Pale Ale and a Zetia Stout. :roll: :)) =))

Deep fried Coke was pretty gross.

Deep fried Oreos are great, but after just one I'm done.

I can only eat about half a deep fried Snickers. Too rich.

Deep fried Twinkies are "classic."

I'm really disturbed by the thought of deep fried butter.
