Subject: ZCMI Ham and Cheese filled bread
I need help locating the specific recipe used by ZCMI to make their hoagie sized
bread baked with ham and cheese in the center. It was a favorite of mine and I
would love to recreate it.
Hi Laura,
Sorry, I had no success locating this recipe. I'll post it on the site.
Perhaps a reader can help.

Subject: Remo's Hot Dogs
Best hot dogs in the world are Remo's Hot Dogs in Gallipolis, Ohio. Spicey,
Italian flavor foot-longs. I live in Cincinnati now, 3 hours away from them.
Can't even find a similar recipe. Can you help? Thank you, Hayden
Hello Hayden,
Wish I could help, but I had no successs locating a copycat recipe for Remo's hot dogs.
There is an article about Remo's here:
Daily Tribune
And this article appears to indicate that Vietnamese Sriracha hot sauce is one
ingredient in Remo's sauce:
L.A. Times
I'll post this on my site. Maybe a reader can help.

Hi Kevin
Wish I could help, but I can't find even a mention of this particular coney
island. Best I can do is post your request on my site and hope that one of
my readers has a recipe.
