Got mine today !! gonna read it this week - it looks awesome !! another classic hit with nice eye candy, sven. Supper clubs are one of the least written about subjects and this book will hopefully usher in a new appreciation and resurgence of old school dining. Great job... and i also notice some of my favs in illinois were listed in the back of the book... if there is ever another updated version of this book, let me know... there are a few more places that might have been over looked that would make a great addition.

Went to Amazon...
Ordered THIS:
Got THIS:
Er... maybe that qualifies as "classic dining" by some(baby's) definition..?!
It does give a whole new meaning to "tableside service" <ba-dump> Hey-o!
But I digress...
I don't know what was going on in the Amazon warehouse when they put my order together, but they
sent me a replacement lickety split.
This book is AWESOME- cheers, Sven; seriously- spending my childhood (and adult life) in Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Minnesota (or, the epicenter of the Supper Club) it's a perfect package. I'm ordering
another one now for my parents... You can almost smell the prime rib.
The Wisconsin supper club is practically an art form. Should "Classic Dining II: Gastronomic Boogaloo" hit the shelves, there's much hiding off the beaten path here in the northern midwest...
Suddenly I got myself a hankering for a sweet Brandy old fashioned, smelts and candied beets....
