Dinner Menu Bidding Goodbye to Booze on the Eve of Prohibition
Very cool. I'm always drawn toward these little self-contained time capsules. Great, vivid, real history!
Thanks - I thought the menu quite a find. Then did some research. Fun post
This weekend I'm going to honor the Old Poodle Dog and celebrate the end of Prohibition with some stuffed squab and an undertaker cocktail. Or two.
You turn everything into an excuse to celebrate
That story about Mayor Schmitz's extortion scheme was pretty interesting. I'm actually surprised that a lot of this history survived the Great Quake given how much of San Francisco was destroyed and burned.
I can’t believe how quickly they rebuilt after the Quake
Indeed. It's astounding. You should cover that history if you can dig it up. I bet there's really cool facts in it.
I want to go to there. I think? But man, what a name!: Bergez-Franks’s Old Poodle Dog
A mouthful
😂
True that. But today is both my birthday and National Vodka Day so I need no excuse.
Well, I say we all raise a glass to Eric!
