Off The Record

How many of you remember the former chef extraordinaire at a local Country Club? After having his chef's hat unceremoniously removed due to his predilection for the clubs top shelf liquor, a tiny faction has been hard at work trying to restore his culinary delights to the area. Apparently they have succeeded because on Friday he conquered the kitchen at the Paxton Bowl. The evening's specialty is Prime Rib (Limited Quantity Available.) We hope that his prime rib is not tepid and one shade past "moo" as bowling alley prime ribs of past have been. We recall a memorable prime rib that practically still had a pulse, the way the blood was still spewing from the slab of meat. Being familiar with the former club chef's culinary specialties, one wonders why tonight's special is the prime rib. The most talked about country club special from years past was the infamous "Low Country Boil" better described as "Low Country Spoil." As most recall it was a collection of leftovers from the previous week combined with various roughages and water stewed together for hours and served from a feed trough. We can just imagine what the former club chef will find to boil at the Paxton Bowl!

We urge everyone to stand in the post office parking lot and peek thru the hole in the north wall of the bowling alley kitchen and gaze in amazement and wonder how it passes health inspections. And someone thought the legion kitchen needed inspection?
