But if you can do with- out the hot stuff and the waitress says you can order a meal more on the bland side, you're liable to still get the spiciest Szechuan that ever burned your tongue. That's a real turnoff. SPEAKING OF WAIT- RESSES, they're a vital ingredient in any restau- rant operation and if you get a good one you're likely to frequent that eating spot again and recommend it to your friends. Like one of the gals at the Lemon Peel on Hunter in Birmingham who suggests two women lunchers share the regular size Greek salad because it's plenty to eat. A waitress at Roberto's on Coolidge Highway in Berkley recommends the same thing for the antipasto salad. This is a money saver and it makes you feel that you're not being taken for every buck the eating spot can get out of you. It's also a nice thing for the generation brought up to not waste food because of all the children starving in China. Before Lelli's enlarged, waiters who dashed around trying to satisfy customers on hectic Saturday nights suggested you come on week nights instead to get better service and really enjoy the Italian cuisine. Waiters seemed to really take pride in the cooking at this popu- lar ethnic spot and wanted you to savor the best of it. Since the expansion, Saturday nights are still pack-'em-in times. But the waiters seem less patient and anxious to please. Maybe we or- dered the wrong dish — sweetbreads which leave much to be desired. We asked about them and our waiter brusquely said, "Everything at Lel- li's is excellent." We swapped the sweet- breads for eggplant par- migiana and it too was dis- appointing. We were em- barrassed to send it back. But the waiter seemed more concerned about his tip than whether or not we were satisfied with the dinner. Larco's on Six Mile in Detroit isn't as busy as Lel- li's. The portions are smaller but the quality of the food hasn't changed. If you're an Italian food aficionado, Aldo's on Kelly Rd. in Detroit is for you. Ev- erything from the pasta to the spumoni in this little mom-and-pop dining spot is lip-smacking and the at- mosphere is cozy. You'd bet- ter make reservations. Capraro's Italian Den on John R. and Maple in Troy specializes in veal parmigiana, piccanti, marsala and home made lasagna and ravioli. If you're looking for a fine dining spot, Excalibur on 12 Mile and Northwestern is the place. It's a popular res- QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ... by Joan Wittenberg of Healthy Jones: What is the name of the booklet that is supposed to be so helpful in telling about how much salt is in our food? It is called "The Sodium Content of Your Food" and it lists almost 800 items and the sodium content of each. It costs $1 and is available from Cornell Distribution Center, 7 Research Park, Ithaca, New York 14850. Checks should be made payable to Cornell Univer- sity. I am trying to convert my baking from using sugar to honey, can you help me? One cup of white sugar may be replaced with one- half to three-fourths cup honey and you must also re- duce other liquids by one- fourth cup. Also reduce your oven temperature by 25° F. as it has a tendency to make things brown faster.
