Jean Markowitz in our party couldn't eat all her sauteed shrimp . . . They were placed in a so-called "doggie" package . . . wrapped up in not just plain tin foil . . . but shaped like the ice carv- ing of a swan . . . a true elegant touch. The flaming dessert pre- pared by Mark was his own togetherness . . . Ice cream topped with strawberries and bananas . . . flambe'd in brown sugar, cinammon, Creme of Banana, Rum, Creme De Noyaux, and Grand Marnier . . . then more ice cream . . . and topped with a dash of whip- ped cream. Ramy and his Benchmark kitchen staff make their own pastries, sauces and breads . . . Some of the rolls are from Martin Weiss at Modern Bakery.

Executive chef Ramy Berdy loves his work so much that he is there from early morning until 8:30 every evening . . . "It's almost like having a license to play," says Ramy. The Benchmark is seeing an almost complete turnab- out . . . except for the not inexpensive a la carte prices. When was theTagt -time you went there for lunch or dinner and had free valet parking? . . . The snob ap- peal has gone . . . and in its stead are smiles . . . polite- ness with concern . . . ev- erything necessary for the utmost enhancement of gracious dining. Yes, there is a change at Michigan Inn's Benchmark Restaurant . . . so very much for the better. AFTER 29 YEARS, Julius Pollack will retire as head of Vienna Wholesale Products . . . It will be taken over in November by Marty Cook and Hy Roths- tein . . . Marty is Julius' sales manager and Hy his office manager. THE FENBY-CARR Orchestra is still as great as ever . . . Gene Fenby, piano and trombone; Milt Ap- tekar, trumpet and clavietta; Mauri Lax, sax, clarinet, flute, violin and clavietta; Dave Jones, bass; and Joe Chila, drums . . . Dave took the place of Art Wilson, who retired six years ago after 38 years on the bass, and passed away a month ago. Mauri, Gene, Milt and Art were together in the De- troit Schoolmen's Chorus 40 years ago when all started teaching in the Detroit Pub- lic School system . . . Gene was its accompanist . . . Belinda Blanchard, Gene's wife, is also a school de- partment head, and has sung with the band 15 years. The group is easily one of the top musical aggrega- tions for many miles around . . . Their ability to play every type of rhythm with delightful grace is a pleas- urable asset that many people enjoy . . . Their musical talents are un- limited. KING LIM'S moved its Oriental restaurant into the new Lincoln Center locale . . . after about 10 years on W. Nine Mile in Oak Park . . . and finally had its grand opening following four months dedicated to cleaning the former Big Boy. The transformation is a major one . . . absolutely no recognition whatsoever to the former eatery . . . with natural hanging plants, airy and spacious, walls with mirrors and beautiful scenery, elegant chandeliers, etc. "This is the last time I'll be having a drink here," said Oak Park Public Safety Director Glen Leonard as he drank his chablis at the (Continued on Page 37) axaho DINNER THEATR E Nancy Gurwin ' in Friday & Saturday Group Rates Available 869-3988 o' I Irving Berlin's P irformances ANNIE GU GuN 17630 Woodward Ile' llff °41 A NANCY GURWIN PRODUCTION Vi ■ 1;-..WV% In Southfield "ONLY ONE PLACE TO GO" Anonymous Gourmet, Detroit Free Press • Our European master chef, Jan Emous, invites you to enjoy one of his creations. • Soups, salads, omelettes, sandwiches. • Create your own salad or omelette. • I maginative gourmet dinner specials. • Expresso coffees, original teas. • Cocktails, wine, coffee liqueurs. • Frozen yogurt, French pastry, fresh fruit desserts.
