Aged Taverns Offer Quiet New York After Dark
In New York on November 21 a portrait of venerable dining rooms on the island's lower tip shows Ye Olde Chop House and Ye Olde Cedar Tavern among others. The piece recalls old world mood, quiet menus, and dedicated staff behind candlelit tables and marble stairs. It notes spurious dinner-getter uppers, opportunist followers around Broadway, and Damon Runyon style portraits of cafe life. It also surveys chef salaries from $7,500 to $60,000 and the ambivalent stance of culinary fame versus quiet dignity.
