: Anyone remember the Famous Restaurant on Eastern
: Parkway? No one could beat their pre-dinner rolls.
: And my favorite dish (see my lost & found bio) was
: vegetable cutlet and kasha with mushroom gravy.
: The last time I ate this superb dish was at another
: Famous Restaurant in Boro Park about six years ago.
: Unfortunately, that one closed down a year after.
::Yes Rich, I actually do remember the famous Restaurant on Eastern Parkway. You see prior to my life in ENY, from 1954 to 1958, I lived in Crown Heights. My grandparents actually lived by us and they lived on Eastern Pky right near the restaurant. I think it was on Eastern Pky at I think Utica Ave or may Nostrand. But of course the most obvious thing about this fantastic place was that is was a vegetarian place. I loved their Blintzes.
