Long before scientists in Scotland cloned Dolly the sheep, Todd Wilbur was hard at work replicating recipes from some of America's favorite restaurant chains. Armed with Ziploc bags for transporting leftovers and plenty of questions for his servers, Wilbur has combined the skills of a private eye and a research scientist to devise the tasty clones included inTop Secret Restaurant Recipes. Wilbur honed his technique on convenience food, creating exact duplicates of everything from a Big Mac to a Twinkie; in this book, however, he sets his sights on slightly more sophisticated fare. Within these pages you'll find sure-fire recipes for such chain favorites as Hard Rock Cafe's Famous Baby Rock Watermelon Ribs, Cheese Blintzes from the International House of Pancakes, and The Olive Garden's Hot Artichoke-Spinach Dip. Denny's, Shoney's, The Cheesecake Factory, and Pizza Hut are just a few of the many chain restaurants from which popular menu items have been "cloned." So the next time you have a hankering for Tony Roma's World Famous Ribs or a slice of Red Robin's Mountain High Mud Pie, don't bother to go out--instead, eat in withTop Secret Restaurant Recipes.
LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I LOVE THE ALICE SPRINGS CHICKEN AT OUTBACK. THIS RECIPE IS EXACTALY LIKE OUTBACK'S. IT WAS SO GOOD THAT I ORDERED TODD'S OTHER 4 BOOKS. CANNOT WAIT TO GET THEM!
Excellent recipes with ingredients already in your pantry! Top Secret Restaurant Recipes exceeds my wishes for the perfect cookbook.
1. Most of the recipes can be made with ingredients I already have in my pantry, so I don't have to grocery shop for obscure ingredients. 2. Recipes the kids will eat (Potato skins, Japanese fried rice, Tony Roma's ribs, Hooter's pasta salad, etc. 3. Every recipe I've tried has been excellent, so I'm not wasting my time making food no one will eat. My suggested recipes, in addition to those previously mentioned, are Applebee's Quesadillas, The Cheesecake Factory's Cajun Jambalaya Pasta, Marie Callender's Chicken Pot Pie, Lone Star's Black Bean soup, Texas Rice, Sweet Bourbon Salmon, T.G.I F.'s Spicy Cajun Chicken pasta.Thrallz This is a very cool cook book, lots of fun recipes to try and of favorites. My husband and I had fun just flipping through it when it first arrived planning what we could fix. The Olive Garden Alfredo is yummy and so close to the original chain version.
