Toots


All this talk today in the next few posts about fancy cocktails and secret "underbelly" bars makes me...

    I remember Toots Shor was located on 52nd Street(?), I was just a kid back then...oh, and Jack Dempsey's bar on Broadway. Knew I had to grow up and try those places but when I did, big deal, right?
