In memory of Proust... We used to have a Sizzlin' Sirloin here in town, a buffet-style restaurant serving American food including steaks of not-great quality.

In memory of Proust... We used to have a Sizzlin' Sirloin here in town, a buffet-style restaurant serving American food including steaks of not-great quality. It's since gone out of business, COVID I think. But for a while, a couple of years ago, somebody in the back owned a madeleine pan and knew how to use that sucker. On the dessert bar, in addition to the usual pies and cakes, next to the soft-serve ice cream, there were madeleines; usually chocolate, crunchy on the outside and soft inside. Delightful.
