Olympic Flame Best Fish Sandwich

fish sandwich

Served here with grilled onions, the Olympic Flame Restaurant fish sandwich is a staple of Friday food for the west midtown crowd. Don’t get us wrong, the McDonald’s Fish sandwich is amazing, but in this presentation, the Olympic Flame version is served with Mayo, Tomato, Lettuce and a side of fries. Unless you ask for tartar sauce, you get mayo. That’s the way Maria has done it for 40 years.

The tradition of eating fish on Fridays dates back to the early days of Christianity. It is believed that Jesus Christ died on a Friday, so Christians began to fast on Fridays as a way to commemorate his sacrifice. Fish was considered a suitable alternative to meat on these days because it is not a warm-blooded animal.

In the Catholic Church, the tradition of eating fish on Fridays is still observed during Lent, a period of 40 days leading up to Easter. During Lent, Catholics are required to abstain from meat on all Fridays, except for Solemnities. Solemnities are feast days that celebrate important events in the life of Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary.

The tradition of eating fish on Fridays is not limited to the Catholic Church. Many other Christian denominations, such as the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Anglican Communion, also observe this tradition.

In addition to its religious significance, eating fish on Fridays can also be a healthy choice. Fish is a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other nutrients. It is also a relatively low-fat food, which makes it a good choice for people who are trying to eat a healthy diet.

Healthiest kinds of fish

The healthiest kinds of fish are those that are high in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury. Some of the best choices include:

  • Salmon
  • Mackerel
  • Anchovies
  • Trout
  • Herring
  • Tilapia
  • Cod
  • Flounder
  • Sole

These fish are all good sources of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health, brain health, and fetal development. They are also low in mercury, which is a heavy metal that can be harmful to human health.

It is important to note that some fish, such as swordfish, tuna, and shark, are high in mercury. These fish should be eaten in moderation, if at all.

Olympic Flame Pork Chops

Here we have a fine example of some Olympic Flame Restaurant pork chops with blackeyed peas and cole slaw.

The black-eyed pea is native to Africa, and it is believed to have been first domesticated near Africa’s Lake Chad in what is now northeastern Nigeria and northern Cameroon. It was then brought to the Americas by enslaved Africans in the 17th century. The black-eyed pea quickly became a popular food in the South, and it is still a staple of Southern cuisine today. Especially with pork chops.

Coleslaw is a salad of finely shredded raw cabbage and other vegetables, such as carrots, onion, and celery, dressed with a vinaigrette or mayonnaise-based dressing. It is a popular side dish in many countries, and is often served with barbecued meats, hot dogs, and hamburgers. Plus coleslaw goes with pork chops.

The word “coleslaw” comes from the Dutch word “koolsla,” which means “cabbage salad.” The dish originated in the Netherlands in the 18th century, and was brought to the Americas by Dutch settlers. Coleslaw quickly became popular in the United States, and is now a staple of American cuisine.

There are many different variations of coleslaw, but the basic ingredients are always the same: shredded cabbage, a dressing, and other vegetables. The dressing can be made with mayonnaise, vinegar, oil, sugar, and other spices. Other vegetables that are often added to coleslaw include carrots, onion, celery, and peppers.

Coleslaw is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. It is often served with barbecued meats, hot dogs, and hamburgers. Coleslaw can also be served as a side dish with fish, chicken, or pork.

Coleslaw is a healthy and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer barbecue or picnic. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, vitamin K, and potassium.

A pork chop is a cut of meat from the loin of a pig. It is a bone-in or boneless cut of meat that is typically grilled, broiled, or pan-fried. Pork chops are a popular dish in many countries and can be served with a variety of side dishes.

Rice

China is the largest producer of rice in the world, followed by India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Vietnam. These five countries account for over half of the world’s rice production. Other significant rice-producing countries include Thailand, Myanmar, the Philippines, Brazil, and Japan. Rice is also grown in many other countries throughout the world, with varying levels of production.

Health

Both rice and wheat are healthy sources of carbohydrates, and which one is better for you can depend on your individual nutritional needs and preferences.

Rice and wheat have similar calorie and carbohydrate content per serving, with rice being slightly lower in calories and carbohydrates. However, the nutritional profile of rice and wheat can vary based on factors such as the type of rice or wheat, the processing methods used, and the way it is prepared.

For example, brown rice is considered to be more nutritious than white rice because it is a whole grain that retains the bran and germ, which contain fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Whole wheat, similarly, is a whole grain that contains more fiber, vitamins, and minerals than refined wheat products such as white bread and pasta.

Brain Food

Salmon is often referred to as “brain food” because it is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential nutrients that play a crucial role in brain function and development. Omega-3 fatty acids, such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), are important for the structure and function of brain cells, and they have been shown to improve cognitive function, memory, and mood.

In addition to omega-3 fatty acids, salmon is also a good source of protein, B vitamins, vitamin D, and minerals such as selenium and potassium, which are all important nutrients for brain health.

While salmon is not the only food that is beneficial for brain health, it is a particularly good source of omega-3 fatty acids, and including it as part of a healthy, balanced diet may have positive effects on cognitive function and overall brain health.

Philly Cheese Steak

Philly Cheese and Onion Rings
Philly Cheese

Philly Cheesesteak sandwich with Onion Rings. Very tender bun, easy to rip in two, and the cheese stretches when you do. Probably provolone.

The history of the Philly cheesesteak is a bit murky, but the most popular story is that it was invented by Pat and Harry Olivieri, two brothers who ran a hot dog stand near South Philadelphia’s Italian Market in the early 1930s. According to the story, one day a customer asked for a sandwich with some of the thinly sliced beef that the brothers were using to make their hot dogs. The brothers obliged, and the cheesesteak was born.

The Philly Cheese quickly became popular, and the Olivieri brothers opened a restaurant called Pat’s King of Steaks in 1933. Pat’s is still in business today, and it is one of the most popular cheesesteak restaurants in Philadelphia.

Another popular story about the origin of the cheesesteak is that it was invented by a man named Joe Fasano, who owned a restaurant called Manny’s Steaks in the late 1930s. According to this story, Fasano was inspired to create the sandwich after seeing a customer eating a hot dog with onions. Fasano decided to try grilling some beef and onions together, and he put the sandwich on a roll. The sandwich was a hit, and Manny’s Steaks became one of the most popular cheesesteak restaurants in Philadelphia.

No matter how you make it, a Philly cheesesteak is a delicious and satisfying sandwich that is sure to please. Here is a recipe for a classic the Philly Cheese:

  • 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced

  5. Place the cheese on top of the steak and onions and let it melt.
  6. Place the steak and onions on the hoagie rolls and serve.

Chef Salad

Chef Salad

A chef salad is an American salad consisting of hard-boiled eggs, one or more varieties of meat (such as ham, turkey, chicken, or roast beef), tomatoes, cucumbers, and cheese, all placed upon a bed of tossed lettuce or other leaf vegetables. Several early recipes also include anchovies. A variety of dressings may be used with this salad.

The chef salad is a popular lunch or dinner option, and it can be easily customized to suit your own taste. For example, you can add or omit different meats, cheeses, or vegetables, and you can choose your favorite dressing.

Here is a basic recipe for a chef salad:

Ingredients:

  • 1 head of lettuce, washed and torn
  • 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup of diced ham
  • 1/2 cup of diced turkey
  • 1/2 cup of diced roast beef
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
  • 1/2 cup of croutons
  • 1/4 cup of your favorite salad dressing

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cheeses, meats, eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, and croutons.
  2. Drizzle with your favorite salad dressing and toss to coat.
  3. Serve immediately.

A chef salad can be a healthy meal, but it depends on the ingredients you use and the dressing you choose. The lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggs are all healthy choices, and the meats can be lean if you choose them carefully. However, some dressings can be high in calories, fat, and sodium. If you’re watching your calories or trying to cut back on fat, you may want to choose a lighter dressing or use less dressing.

Here are some tips for making a healthier chef salad:

  • Use lean meats, such as turkey or chicken breast.
  • Choose a light dressing, such as vinaigrette or yogurt-based dressing.
  • Use low-fat cheese.
  • Limit the amount of croutons you add.
  • Add more vegetables, such as carrots, broccoli, or peppers.
  • Top with fruit, such as berries or melon.

By following these tips, you can make a chef salad that is both delicious and healthy.

Turkey Burger and Fries

Turkey burgers are made from ground turkey meat, which is usually a combination of white and dark meat. The meat may be seasoned with various spices and herbs, such as salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, and paprika, to add flavor. Other ingredients, such as breadcrumbs, egg, and milk, may be added to help bind the meat together and add moisture. Some recipes may also include chopped vegetables, such as onion, celery, or bell pepper, for added texture and flavor.

Turkey burgers are often considered a healthier alternative to traditional beef burgers because turkey is generally lower in fat and calories than beef. However, the nutritional content of turkey burgers can vary depending on the specific recipe and cooking method used. It’s important to read the nutrition label and ingredient list to understand what ingredients and nutrients are in a particular turkey burger.

Turkeys can run quite fast, especially for short distances. Wild turkeys are able to run at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour (40 kilometers per hour) for short distances, which is relatively fast for a bird of their size. This allows them to escape predators such as foxes, coyotes, and domestic dogs.

Domesticated turkeys, which are the ones typically raised for food, may not be as agile or fast as their wild counterparts due to selective breeding for larger size and weight. However, they are still capable of running at a decent pace for short distances.

Turkeys are not inherently stupid animals. Like all animals, they have their own unique set of instincts, behaviors, and capabilities.

Turkeys are actually quite intelligent and have been shown to have good memories, problem-solving abilities, and social skills. They have been observed displaying complex social behaviors, such as forming hierarchies and engaging in courtship displays.

However, domesticated turkeys, which are the ones typically raised for food, may appear less intelligent due to the conditions in which they are raised. Domesticated turkeys are often kept in cramped, crowded conditions that limit their ability to engage in natural behaviors and social interactions. This can lead to behaviors that may appear unintelligent, such as repetitive movements or lack of exploration.

In summary, turkeys, like all animals, have their own unique characteristics and behaviors, and it is not accurate to generalize them as “stupid”.

It’s possible for a turkey, or any bird for that matter, to drown in heavy rain if they are unable to find shelter or take flight to escape the conditions. However, it’s important to note that wild turkeys are highly adaptable and are able to cope with a wide range of weather conditions, including rain.

In general, wild turkeys are able to find shelter in the forest or under trees during rainstorms. They have also evolved to have waterproof feathers that help to keep them dry and insulate their bodies from the cold. If a turkey is caught in a sudden downpour, it may simply huddle under a nearby tree or shrub until the rain stops.

Domesticated turkeys, on the other hand, are not as adaptable as their wild counterparts and are often raised in confined conditions without access to the natural shelter of trees and bushes. In such cases, heavy rain can pose a greater risk to their well-being. Farmers who raise turkeys for food typically take measures to protect their birds from inclement weather by providing them with shelter, such as covered areas or barns, where they can stay dry and avoid the risk of drowning.
