Would You Like A Side of Heartbreak With That?

Last week, we asked you to tell us your tales of culinary betrayal and woe… you know, when your favorite restaurant or bar has made the mistake of removing a beloved or signature item from the menu?

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, we’ve put together a menu of gourmet heartbreak based on your comments. Why shed tears over a lost love when you can cry your heart out over a long-gone Corn Muffin Delight?
