There's a small local Italian place here in Johnson City called "The Crazy
Tomato" that beats Olive Garden hands down IMNSHO.  I haven't eaten at Olive
Garden in years as they want too much for their food.

Now here's something I like (and everyone else thinks I'm crazy) sans the
brandy:

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

     Title: Myra's Jewish Chopped Liver
Categories: Poultry, Appetizers, Jewish
     Yield: 3 Servings

     1 lb Chicken livers
   1/2 c  Schmaltz or Nyafat
     1 lg Onion, coarsely chopped
     3    Eggs, hard boiled and
          Peeled
     2 tb Brandy
   1/2 ts Kosher salt
          Pepper to taste

 In broiler pan, spread livers and broil until very well done (no
 pinkness remaining).  In skillet, melt schmaltz and saute onion until
 very brown. Add livers and cook an additional few minutes, allowing
 the liver to absorb the schmaltz-onion flavor.

 In food processor or blender, chop eggs, add the liver-onion mixture
 and remaining ingredients.  Pulse until everything is ground and mixed
 together.

 Put in bowl or crock and refrigerate.

 NOTE:  Schmaltz is rendered chicken fat with onion, and is available
 in the kosher section of your market. Nyafat is a cholesterol-free,
 schmaltz-flavored vegetable shortening, also available in the kosher
 section.

MMMMM
