No, I haven't, and I have tried many times. I do know it was made with a
very sharp cheddar, and I believe it has a small amount of sherry in it.
Additionally, it was served over a wonderful melba toast that they made
there in the restaurant. It wasn't as hard as commercial melba toast, and
was just a bit thicker. It was toasted 'til dry with just a bit of buter
on it.
