I can see the gaslights. What a memorable place.

Crabmeat a la dewey was right there--my Dad liked this but my Mom and I were sort of purists and went for the fried filet of sole which was great. This restaurant brings back fond memories for me and my family. After graduating from 6th grade at Berkeley Institute (now Berkeley Carroll) my Grandmother took us out for lunch at Gage & Tollners. It was a great celebration especially with my friend Susan Breen and her parents at the next table. We had fun!!Melaniehttp://melaniemusings2.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
