Hello All
I am trying to find the mexican cornbread recipe from Piccadilly’s Cafeteria, which was once the Morrison Restaurant. If anyone can help, Thanks.
I went to lunch at Piccadilly Cafeteria today and had some awesome Mexican cornbread. Is anyone familiar with the bread I am talking about? I found several yummy sounding choices on the search here, but I don’t think this bread had cream corn or cheese in it. It did have some red and green peppers of some variety and quite a delicious kick. It was not a sweet cornbread either. The piece was nicely baked in a triangle shape, which has nothing to do with the taste, but it looked pleasing. Can anyone help me make more of this bread?
I would have asked the manager if they shared the recipe, but about 10 minutes before DD and I finished eating the electricity went out. The manager was busy trying to make sure everyone got seated safely and that the cashier was equipped to get everyone checked out. I figured a recipe was the last thing he had time for at that moment.
Thank you if you can help.
I am also eager to get the Mexican cornbread recipe from Picadilly. Did either of you have success in obtaining the recipe…or finding one that is similar? Thanks for any input!
