cockie leekie

I had to look it up. from wiki:

Cock-a-leekie soup is a Scottish soup dish consisting of leeks and peppered chicken stock, often thickened with rice, or sometimes barley. The original recipe added prunes during cooking, and traditionalists still garnish with a julienne of prunes

Likewise with Chicken ala Maryland. Heard of Chicken ala King before, hadn't heard of this Maryland one. It sounds... Odd. Chicken in a cream sauce with bananas.

it's a strange menu from our perspective, for sure.
