This dish placed 3rd in the "Taste of the Town" competition this year. We call it the Salty Dog here at the Feed Bag, where I cook. It retails for $12.95 and is very popular with our lunch crowd.

Good example of popular restaurant dishes: 1 TB of salt per serving! -aem
Nothing wrong with gin, though. Gimlets are one of my favorite drinks. I just think that grapefruit juice goes better with tequila.
I discovered something about gimlets and hard liquor in general, at least in my case. I don't take sweet drinks well. I usually don't get bad hangovers from white liquors like gin, tequila, and vodka. But, gimlets! ...whoa!! I've no doubt it's from the sugary Rose's Lime juice. I don't really like sweet drinks, but gimlets are like 80 proof lemon drops, the only hard candy I've ever liked. Oh, the pain.
