Arthur Schwartz covers the personalities, products, restaurants, bakeries, food stores, and events that make the Big Apple the dining capital of America.
Schwartz tells the story of each immigrants group's culinary challenges and contributions, beginning with those hearty eaters, the first Dutch settlers. Other highlights include how the introduction of fine dining at Delmonico's in 1827 coincided with the city's transformation into an international center of commerce; how multiple outposts of Horn & Hardart, Childs, Chock Full o' Nuts, and Schrafft's fed the masses; where '21' hid its alcohol during Prohibition; why Jewish immigrants quickly established their own food stores on the Lower East Side; how chicken and waffles came to be a famous pair; and how Porterhouse steak got its name.
