[s-cars] Andouillette and Le Mans Classic 2004

[Frederic L'Huillier]

I will not even reply to this Anti Andouillette (not andouille) thread.
This is one of my favorite plate ever. The best ones are rated AAAA.
With mustard from Dijon and french fries, this is just paradise. Of
course on the bbq is the best way to prepare it. But I will never call
any food at Le Mans french cuisine either.

I hope to see a lot of you for the next Le Mans Classic in 2004. The
folks from Audi Tradition were really impressed by the event, the number
and the quality of the cars racing during the week end. It is very
likely that the french Audi Club will get official support from Audi
Tradition, at Ingolstadt for the next edition. Auto-Union Type C or Avus
Concept Car for our booth ? Or both ????

Regards,
Frederic

Gotta love that Craftsmaster Club.  I worked at Sears (hardware) while
in college.  I used to hear all kinds of funny names for Craftsman and
other Sears product lines from the local Athens, GA crowd.  Man....the
kooks that used to come in that store!!  My favorite line was "this
thang ain't worked right since day one!!!"  I finally got fed up with
hearing it so I got smart and said "well, I guess you should have
brought it back on day one!!"  Anyway...I'm rambling now.....

No crepes to be had at "the Classic, but I got ahold of some Andouille
sausage.  Keith bought one too.  We walk back over to the French Audi
Corral and sat down to eat.  Well, Keith left his sausage untouched
while he ate his fries.  I on the other hand took a big bite out of the
Andouille as soon as we sat down.  I immediately thought "damn this
stuff smells like horse sh1t"....then as I kept chewing I thought "oh my
god it tastes like it too!!"  So with a straight face I stood up from
the table with this stuff still in my mouth and very quietly walked
around to the back of the tent and spit it out.  The foul taste still
lingered and gag reflex was definitely kicking in....I grabbed my beer
and chugged about half of it down.  Things were going to be OK.

I told Keith that he really needed to try his sausage 'cause it was
good!!  Keith put it in his mouth and bite down.  I'm starting to laugh
at this point.  He must have gotten the same smell I got because he
proceeded to release his teeth from the sausage leaving just his teeth
marks in it.  It went straight to the trash can along side mine.
Cheesinya!!

So later I asked Frederic what Andouille consisted of....the answer was
"pig intestines".....awww NICE!!.  "Do you like it, Frederic"....."Oh
yes I love to eat it all the time!!"

Note to self.....stay way from Andouille next time.

Will the LMC stories ever end?!!  What a great time.  I hope more yanks
can make it next time to cover my back.

Thanks again Frederic for all the hospitality!!  Give my regards to
Norbert also.  And of course I send my kisses to Sophie!! :-)
