Hi! I am trying to find a recipe for the tuna salad sandwiches from Worman's Bakery & Deli, a Jewish deli
that was on Broad Street in downtown Jacksonville, Florida from 1923-2009. I remember the tuna had a dill
taste to it and was very dry, in a good way (not gloppy & mayonnaise drenched). It was a wonderful treat
to eat tuna salad sandwiches at Worman's with my mom & sisters as a teenager, and then have their
fantastic cheesecake slices for dessert afterwards. I would love to make their tuna salad at home!
Thank you for your help.
Allison
Hi Allison,
I did not have any success locating any recipes at all from Warman's. The only mention of their tuna salad
that I could find was on a copy of their menu.
Probably the only way to get this would be from a former employee or from the family itself.
I will post this on my site for reader input.

Can you help.

Hi Suzanne,
The first recipe below was posted on a message board by someone who represented themselves
as being from Howard Johnson's.
The second recipe was posted in a New York Times article about Howard Johnson's.

Philippines peso rate? As always THANK YOU for any help you can give!!!!! Doug

No problem. Here are two sites where you can check the daily rates for previous years:
