Hi Julie

I found a few different sites using Jeeves
http://web.ask.com/webadvanced. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the
actual recipe, just booksales, but these may lead you to links:

"Right now, you see, I have gotten myself into a fine kettle of
knoephla/knoepfle, as now I have all these leads to check out. An

Sharon Wamsley says no, the best is at the Pasthymes in Steele, served
Mondays and Thursdays. And Ed Keller from Dickinson, who sides with Joe
Kisch on the spelling controversy, nominates the Rolling Hills Café on
I-94 west of Mandan for best of breed in the knoepfle category."
