 Item — Box: 1, Folder: 5

Scope and Contents

Notes from the collector: No menu, but an early postcard of the first, I think, operation in Georgetown. The company now has say ten or more operations covering D. C. and outer areas. The last time we were there we encountered a bomb scare with a package left on the street. The police told everyone to vacate the restaurant via the rear entrance as the fun was over. I asked the waiter if we still had to pay. Unfortunately he said yes. We became a little nervous in the drama as we were dining with two fraternity brothers and their wives. One was the first U. S. Ambassador to Albania, a country which had just come out of the cover of communism and a very poor country.
