Monte Cristo ~ Blue Bayou
This is the single best possible to eat. I have been saying it for years. Ever since M7 and I stumbled accross it compleatly by mistake. It was truly a magic sandwich and still is. It's so good that I have no problem with going to Disneyland just to eat one! Mind you I cant do it all that often because they are quite filling. Here is an LA Times quote:"...the [Blue Bayou in New Orlean's Square, Disneyland/Anaheim California] restaurant's Monte Cristo sandwich probably has been the most recognizable -- and demanded -- item on the menu since it first appeared in 1966. It hasn't changed since then," said Boll, "and it's become a standard. It's a very, very popular item. We serve about 160 to 200 of them every day. When the first one of the day comes out, everybody who sees it wants to order one. It comes close to the croque monsieur that originated in France." ---"Chef du Jour: Disney's counter of Monte Cristo," Los Angeles Times, July 15, 1993 (p. 36)
