Did you just abbreviate French fries?

My mother was an Italian growing up in NO, what do you think...?
Morrisons's was the place to be on Easter Sunday...

Piccadilly was where it's at.

No on Easter but I loved Morrison's in Pensacola when I was a kid!
Probably not something I would think is amazing now since I think I usually got hamburger steak and doused it with Heinz 57 sauce but it was a lot of fun as a kid to go through the line. . .
I do remember their Boston Creme Pie.

We call it Piccadilly around here. Piccadilly.
No matter how much I ever tried to get the Dilly special or whatever, my meal never fit the parameters and always cost more than the advertised price.
I also have a vivid memory of finally feeling like an man when I was allowed to carry my own tray from the cashier to the table. That's when I knew I had made it to 'big boy' status and no longer a little kid.

I think that was the gist of it, your parents let you pick out what you wanted...

Piccadilly was a Baton Rouge thing... They didn't open Piccadillys in the NO area until the 80's.

I remember the one in the Bon Marche mall having the dark blue walls with fish and old style sailboats on them.
That's why I remember it, at least.

Absolutely loved that place as a kid. Jazz music playing thru speakers. Waiters in green suits with gloves. Always thought it was so fancy as a kid
Also. Wise and A&G cafeterias. Schwegman cafeteria as well.
Wish I could go back with my kids for a day and have them experience old New Orleans.

That was the place I took my grandmother for years. Always was a favorite. Remember to this day one of the waiter's name was Horace. Used to love the fried chicken. Their custard pie was amazing.

That was my problem too.
My eyes were always bigger than my stomach, and I would grab extras along the way and I would nearly faint once I got the bill
Too bad Piccadilly is just a shell of its former self.
I could go for some carrot soufflé right about now.
The silver slipper makes a similar version. I just have to add some more powdered sugar on it. I know I am fatty.
