Our Favorite Hangouts...

Hitching Post Inn

* The Hitching Post Inn, this famous landmark was the hot spot for CFD events, dinners at the Carriage Court and the great coffee shop. Late nights in the lobby with Michael D. * The Owl Inn, just the best 'go-to' all around restaurant to see everyone you know. Aptly named for being open 24 hours to serve the United Airlines shift workers in the late 1930's... a drive the strip and Buzz the Owl favorite in the 50's. In 1966 the Inn was mentioned in Esquire magazine as one of the outstanding drive-ins in America where young people hung out to see and be seen. Known for their enormous cinnamon rolls by the 1980's about 200 were baked every morning. * And, special evenings at Poor Richard's welcomed by the warm Rauzi hospitality! ... not to mention the soup and salad bar we so miss!

Tiramisù - Favorite Dessert of the Early 1980's!

Tiramisù is an Italian dessert that has its roots in the 17th century, but it was all the rage in the 80's. The spongy, chocolately, espresso-dusted cake was introduced to restaurants in America in the 1980's.

Craig Lee for the New York Times

INGREDIENTS FOR THE CREAM 4 large egg yolks ½ cup/100g granulated sugar, divided ¾ cup heavy cream 1cup/ 227g mascarpone (8 ounces)

Step 1 - Prepare cream: Using an electric mixer in a large bowl, whip together egg yolks & ¼ cup/50 grams sugar until very pale yellow & about tripled in volume. A slight ribbon should fall from the beaters (or whisk attachment) when lifted from the bowl. Set aside.

Step 2 - In medium bowl, whip cream & remaining ¼ cup/50g sugar until it creates soft peaks. Add mascarpone & continue to whip until it creates a soft, spreadable mixture with medium peaks. Gently fold the mascarpone mixture into sweetened egg yolks until combined.

Step 3 - For the assembly, combine espresso and rum in a shallow bowl and set aside.

cheyennehomes.com

FOR THE ASSEMBLY 1¾ cups good espresso or very strong coffee 2 tablespoons rum or cognac 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 24 ladyfingers (from one 7oz./200-g pkg) 1 to 2oz. bittersweet chocolate, for shaving

Step 4 - Using a sifter, dust the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish (8x8-in dish, or 9-in round cake pan) with 1 tbsp. cocoa powder.

Step 5 - Quickly dip each ladyfinger into espresso mixture & place them rounded side up at the bottom of the baking dish. Repeat, using half the ladyfingers, until you’ve got an even layer, breaking the ladyfingers in half as needed to fill in any gaps. Spread half the mascarpone mixture onto ladyfingers in 1 even layer. Repeat with remaining espresso-dipped ladyfingers & mascarpone mixture.

Step 6 - Dust top layer with remaining tablespoon of cocoa powder. Cover with plastic wrap & chill in refrigerator for 4 -24 hrs. Top with shaved chocolate, if desired, then serve.
