Personal Notes:
Upon arriving to Anchorage, I stayed in a hotel which served dinner each night. To my surprise, they lovingly prepared fresh meals with favorite family recipes. This was one of my favorites. Thomas, a budding chef, said his mother made it and her mother before that. He added the Tony's creole but the remaining ingredients are the same from generation to generation.
