How do I go about getting a recipe from a restaurant? I know there are lots of copycat recipes online but I never seem to find the one I'm looking for and if I do find it, it tastes aweful.

I was thinking maybe I could pretend to have an allergy to some foods and I could say "what's in it?" LOL But that makes me a liar so not so fond of that idea.

Anyone have an idea???

I would just ask the waitress. When I had that job I was always ready and willilng to discuss it!! It wouldn't be awkward or anything, I'm sure it is something they get a lot...I did.

I would definitely ask!

I have a site that I use from time to time let me see if I can find the link.
ok here you go http://www.recipelink.com/copycat.html hope this helps.

What recipes are you looking for?

Let's see... Pizza from any pizza restaurant. Shroeder's (burger chef) ham & cheese sandwich. Pizza King has a sandwich that for the life of me, I cannot think of the name right now. It's sort of like spaghetti sauce & meat on a sub....almost like BBQ, but not. Oh that's it, Texas BBQ. And the REAL REAL recipe for taco bell meat. I've tried about 10 copycat recipes now and they're all wrong...and flat out gross honestly.
