DESCRIPTION:
Yum Yvonne Parnes Great memories. Fantastic Midwest Book Review Lavishly illustrated throughout, "When Everybody Ate At Schrafft's" by Joan Kanel Slomanson is a compilation of memories, pictures, and recipes from a very special New York City based restaurant empire that grew to more than fifty establishments popular with celebrities, businessmen, and the public at large. Slomanson writes with a special expertise as a former advertising agency creative directo. "A lot of stories" according to Elizabeth C.. I was expecting more of a cookbook and this is definitely heavy on the reminiscent side rather than recipes. If you have a strong history with Schrafft's you might enjoy it more.
When Everybody Ate at Schrafft's is a lavishly illustrated book about the Schrafft's restaurant empire and the era in which it thrived. In the New York area alone, more than 50 stores (as they were called) dotted the urban landscape. And as you'll see, everybody who ate at Schrafft's has a story to tell.. Celebrities were frequent customers and sometimes employees, women lunched there, and businessmen conferred over cocktails
