ReplyDeletePeggy would be chagrined... well maybe not exactly chagrined, but they were good!
Does anyone have the apple turnover recipe for Smith and Mcnell's Hotel that was at the corner of 195 Washington St (corner of Greenwich St) in lower Manhattan? They were known for them. Or any information on the pace at all, for that matter? http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=F6091FFB3D5D11738DDDA10894DE405B838CF1D3
