Chefs' Secrets: This refreshing drink the real thing

Special to the Express-News 

Dear Pat: Do you think you could get Pam's Patio Kitchen's recipe for
strawberry lemonade? We'd like to use it for a graduation party. 

R.H. 

Dear R.H.: David and Pam Strain, owners and chefs at Pam's Patio Kitchen,
have the right idea. They make real food — the sort our grandmothers would
recognize. 

That firm philosophy carries over even to the lemonade. It's not a mix with
unpronounceable ingredients printed in tiny letters on a box. It's made with
— gasp — lemons, sugar, water and strawberries! It couldn't be simpler, and
that's its charm.

sSecrets_Rec.2491975.html>  Pam's Patio Kitchen's Strawberry Lemonade
	

The pretty pink comes from the color of the sliced strawberries, gradually
infusing the lemonade. David rightly stresses the importance of squeezing
fresh lemons, not resorting to the bottled juice. Prepare it at least an
hour or so before serving and refrigerate to chill it thoroughly. And tell
the graduate congratulations! 

The Strains are adventurous cooks, and their eclectic menu reflects their
love of good foods from around the world. Dishes from Mexico, Italy, Asia
and, yes, America, all live in harmony, so when the family can't decide
where to eat, Pam's Patio is the obvious answer. 

Note their schedule: lunch Tuesday through Saturday, and dinner on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday evenings. Pam's Patio also offers wine dinners, so when
you come by, be sure to inquire about those as well. 

Pam's Patio Kitchen is at 11826 Wurzbach Road.
