There are many amusing bits of social history in the first section of this book about one of New Yorks most missed restaurants. In one such passage, the Colonys Socialist tendencies are exposedwaiters took diners bills to proprietor Gene Cavallero who would increase or decrease the total based upon his estimation of their wealth. The second section of the book contains the recipes for which the restaurant was known.

The Colony is one of the few places in New York where I finish my vegetables; and more often than not, at other places I dont even begin them.
