OK, OK already. I get the message.
After a recent reference to a reader search for lake perch in this column, I started getting recommendations for a place that had not yet been mentioned: Jackson's Bar & Grill, 6020 W. Flamingo Road, which has a $13.99 Friday Fish Fry.
"Great food, lake perch -- fresh, beer-battered to order," e-mailed Robin Slipock. "All you can eat, salad, coleslaw, rolls and french fries, too."
Slipock's recommendation was echoed, in various degrees and forms, by Tim Buckley, Mark Thomson, Barb Weinzetl, Tim and Gwynn Jones, Ed Berwager, Kelly Lapp and Margaret Rich. ...
We have lots of recommendations, too, for M.J. Deacon, who's looking for chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Randi Wiessen e-mailed that they're available in Mexican markets and in the Mexican sections of many supermarkets (she mentioned that Herdez is one brand). Yvette Anders also suggested Mexican markets; Marilyn Huff suggested Food 4 Less at 3013 W. Craig Road in North Las Vegas; William G. Raley, Colleen Sams and Heather Reznak suggested various Albertsons stores; Raley also suggested Smith's at 8555 W. Sahara Ave.; and Andrea Reed faxed that she gets them at Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market and Wal-Mart Supercenter. ...

Desert Inn Road, Al Wirtzbaum suggested Primarily Prime Rib at 9777 Las Vegas Blvd. South, Carol Martin suggested Snaps Cafe at the Eastside Cannery at 5255 Boulder Highway and Douglas Martz suggested Sweet Tomatoes, which is at 2080 N. Rainbow Blvd. and 375 N. Stephanie St. in Henderson ...
For Milo Kell, who's looking for canned whole green beans, Dottie Douglas suggested Smith's at 3850 W. Flamingo Road, while other readers suggested Vons at 2667 Windmill Parkway, Smith's at 2385 E. Windmill Lane, and Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Markets. ...
