Not sure which one.Great Italian and great steaks. Pfizer Inc. had a back door from it's corporate headquarters that opened onto 45th. Many a " drug" deal was signed in some of these wonderful restaurants. The Palm is still there and still has wonderful steak. The rest are gone but good memories.Always surprised that the Pen and Pencil cooked its steaks over high heat burners on grill skillet pans. They were amazing ! dobbs100https://www.blogger.com/profile/05977864535099584715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-89556851151079961422015-08-02T02:31:31.767-07:002015-08-02T02:31:31.767-07:00Danny's Hideaway - where we were known by name...Danny's Hideaway - where we were known by name by the wonderful maitre d' - John.<br /><br />Lovely man and missed when the restaurant closed.<br /><br />Thanks for the memories!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-22750725180909201602012-01-03T08:05:29.701-08:002012-01-03T08:05:29.701-08:00My grandmother rolled into the Pressbox with Grand...My grandmother rolled into the Pressbox with Grandfather for dinner in the early '60's. They loved the place and counted Henry, Harry and Freddy as friends. Grandmother spied Henry Morgan at the bar and, although not much of a stargazer nor he much of a star, was moved to hail him: "Oh, Henry, I know who you are but you don't know who I am!" in her Dewar's-inspired slightly English accent. Henry turned, eyed her and replied: "Let's keep it that way Toots." I don't believe Grandmother ever again watched What's My Line.Stanleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-18056312649692301592011-07-22T01:09:53.998-07:002011-07-22T01:09:53.998-07:00A Lovely article about a time now past.

Famous for the mob shooting of Castellano on the sidewalk out front. Haven't has a steak there in decades, but I recall it being mighty fine in the 80s.<br /><br />http://www.sparkssteakhouse.com/Carol Gardensnoreply@blogger.com
