I love chicken cordon bleu because it reminds me of being young and in love… seriously. I always considered it a fancy dinner reserved for special occasions to the point where we even had it at our wedding. I grew up poor and in the suburbs thinking Olive Garden was fancy, so yeah my wife and I went to the local Irish Pub more than once for Valentine’s Day for Chicken Cordon Bleu AND she still married me.
