When we were in New Orleans, we ate at K-Paul's and on our special banquet
menu was Swordfish in Warm Fanny Sauce -- Upon seeing my souvenir menu,
an English friend was horrified that such a word would be used to describe
a sauce!! Apparently this word has an indelicate meaning in British English!!
She wonders just what this sauce is, and, now, so do I. Do any of you
culinary-expert Zines out there know what this New Orleans dish might
be? (I did not have the Swordfish that night.) By the way, the British
are also very surprised at our term fanny pack -- more common there for
the same thing is bum bag. Cheers, Pat in Baltimore
