I need your help!!! I had the most amazing piece of seared tuna at 
Pappadeaux's Seafood Restaurant in Norcross, GA on Mother's Day. 
It is called Hawaiian Yellowfin Tuna Tambour, and it is simply amazing. 
My youngest daughter, who won't ever try anything that isn't called 
'chicken fingers' even tried it and liked it.

It had some sort of chili rub on it, making it almost taste like steak. 
There was a béarnaise sauce and lump crabmeat served with it, but the 
tuna was definitely the star.

If there is anyway to get this recipe, I'd appreciate it. Can't wait to 
go back to order this again, or better yet, make it in my own kitchen!

Thanks so much,

Tara 

Hi Tara,

Wish I could help, but I had no success locating this recipe. There's a photo of it here:
Yelp.com

The Pappadeaux menu describes it like this:

"Hawaiian Yellowfin Tuna Tambour":
"seared tuna with a chili crust finished with jumbo lump crabmeat in beurre blanc with green bean frit."

I'm looking for a recipe from a BHG cookbook, probably published in the 
60's. This recipe contained finely chopped apples cooked in a sugar syrup, 
and the whole thing was added in.  I've checked numerous websites without luck, 
including BHG.  Any help you can give is much appreciated!!!

Hi Kim,

at a take out place one time in Riverside california and they had deep 
fried Zucchini chips and I ate 3 of their servings and they were delicious.
