I figure this particular thread belongs here, but there is a much more detailed discussion of Louis’ Italian-American Restaurant in the GF Trilogy forum. Anyway… “Try the veal. It’s the best in the city.â€But – what was the dish? For the curious, it’s best to remember the Chinese proverb: “One who has choice, has troubles.†Here, copied from an actual Louis’ Restaurant menu from 1923 [Edit: Or possibly somewhat later - SV] are a few interesting items – and prices. Veal noted with as asterisk (*). ENTRÉE *Scallops of Veal With Mushrooms ...……….......60 *Scallops of Veal picante ...…..50 Rolled Beef Italian style…........50 Meat Balls with Spaghetti….....40 *Veal Fricassee with Peppers...50 *Cutlets a la Milanese......….....40 *Cutlets Parmigiana….…...…..50 *Cutlets a la Swiss…………....50
ROASTS Roast Pork………………….…50 *Roast Veal………………...…45 Roast Chicken with Salad.....…60 Roast Leg of Lamb….........…..50 STEAKS AND CHOPS Sirloin Steak…........………..…70 “ Sailor style.........…........….....75 Steak alla Pizzaiola…................75 “ with Mushrooms.....................85 Tenderloin Steak…...........…..1.00 “ en casserole…......................1.15 Pork Chops Fried………...........45 “ Italian style ....................…….50 *Veal Chops Fried…….....…....50 “ Italian style..............................55 Lamb Chops (2)……...........…..60Looks like a lot to choose from. (Maybe Louis was offering a "Special" for sit-downs? ) Signor V.

"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
