Loved, loved loved it. The batter was so light and browned beautifully. We don't eat much fried foods, but this is worth it. Flavor was great. Had some extra batter, but so what. I got one and Dave ate the rest. Made as directed without any changes and I have no suggestions to make it better, except to maybe add a little salt and pepper, but not a biggy. This does not serve 2 if they are anything like Dave. LOL thanks Anme.
