Irish Circle Wapella Today's Lunch Special: GOULASH, GARLIC BREAD AND SALAD BAR! Tonight....ALL YOU CAN EAT SPAGHETTI AND SALAD BAR.
Which genned up the question...could this be one of Howard Abraham's legendary recipes which would definitely be worth the trip uptown for lunch. Didn't Howard also make Swedish Meatballs which was a great punchline for my parents in the years of jousting with Howard about food.
There have been several great dishes to come out of Wapella, some of which did not even feature cream of mushroom soup as a binding ingredient. Rozanne Karr's devilled eggs come to mind; Pat Powers pumpkin blossoms; Chris Ooms son-of-a-gun stew....all of these and more have a legendary effect on Wapella gourmands.
So tell us, dear reader, what recipes come to mind when Wapella is on the taste buds? Something featuring Bud Light Lime Chicken? An old time stuffed pepper? Some rich desert? Let us know.
And here's something from the Long Ryder's who spent too long Downtown and should have went Uptown for a while to avoid the bright lights. Enjoy!

Wapella BBQ, also known as Bernice's BBQ, a nice mixture of hamburger, catsup, brown sugar and a few secret ingredients.
Turkey gravy served at St Patrick's turkey dinners, made by Nora Carsten, Mary Medler and Helen Toohill to name a few.
Mary Pat Killian makes a wonderful pretzel salad.
Number one is Bernadine Toohill's cherry pie
L.J. Toohill's BBQ pork steaks, but Bernadine Toohill's cherry pie still remains number one. The St. Pat's turkey gravy remains a staple in the Toohill family holidays, even the brothers know how to make it.
