After the recipe for Crumly Cogwheels Cheesecake appeared in the Food section April 2, several loyal fans of the former restaurant at 1200 Milam wrote to ask for other favorite recipes, including the Tortilla Soup. It is their most-requested recipe, said owner Paul Helm, who now operates Crumly Cogwheels as a full-service catering company.
