Editorial Review

Ye Olde depression-era kitchen feeds the ghost of Ladies' Home Journals past:  Oysters Rockefeller, corned beef and cabbage, grandmother's gravy.  Signature "Hot Brown" sandwich is a hot mess of good. WASPs feel at home with 18th century horse derby prints, tapestry tablecloths.  Whisky list supercedes wine list. Rickety wooden booths polished by decades of Georgetown students' bottoms, dead baseball heroes, in-the-know tourists. If these walls could talk, they would stink of bathtub gin.
