Paula's on Main, Ft Wayne, Indiana review

It was my birthday and I wanted to try someplace new in Ft Wayne that we had never tried or even heard of. I searched Urban Spoon and found Paula's on Main. (Located just east of downtown Ft Wayne on Main street.

We both love fish, but I had no idea that this was an actual fresh fish market! We walked in to see a large variety of fish behind the counter!

We liked the atmosphere right away here.Very nice ambiance. 

We were escorted upstairs to a type of loft that over looked the bar. We were then seated at a lovely corner table. It wasn't long before we have a server attending us. 

We began with an appetizer of buffalo shrimp. The moment this was placed in front of us, the spice in it was penetrating my nose! It was hot and all we could do to eat only 3 each! Very good, but HOT!

I decided to order the Greek olive and tomato shrimp. I would never have placed this combination together, but it was quite good.

 Roger opted for a white fish with spinach and mushrooms. Excellent!

Overall, good service, great food, good atmosphere...Paula's on Main gets a

Chicken Cordon Bleu

While searching for a good Christmas recipe to serve to my large family for dinner, I went in search of a good Cordon Bleu recipe. I found a few here and there, but wasn't crazy about the ingredients they were calling for. 

I decided to take what I knew about this dish and make it my own.

5 cups of cooked, shredded chicken. ( I use boneless chicken thighs) 

2 cups of chopped cooked ham ( I use end pieces )

2 jars of your favorite Alfredo sauce

9 slices of Swiss Cheese

1 head chopped broccoli

2 packages of Ritz cracker crumbs

1/2 stick butter

1 Tbs chopped garlic

Cook and shred the chicken. Add chopped ham and broccoli and place in greased 9x13 pan. Pour Alfredo sauce over top and mix lightly. Place cheese on top of chicken and ham. Add garlic and melted butter to cracker crumbs sprinkle on top of dish. Bake 350 for 20-25 minutes ( till broccoli is soft)

Serves 12-15 people.
