There had been a time when
Supervised By The Council Of Orthodox Rabbis
the food and service left
much to be desired.
Today, though, there is

individuality . . . and the

RIALTO'S SPECIAL BREAKFAST

;

eight-months . . . The next
menu will have a Dover Sole
Rebecca named after their
daughter.
In maitre d' Monsieur
Joseph, what more can be
said except that he is an ex-
pert of experts at his trade
. . . Monsieur Joseph orig-
inally opened the Bench-
mark . . . and is back as
part of Ramy's great team.
Gene Amerguian,
whose voice you hear on
the Benchmark radio
commercials, is from
France . . . and Rainy's
very excellent assistant.
The pastries made by
Jerry Smigelski and his
assistant, Sheila Stein, are
works of art . . . both to
look at and devour . . .
Sheila is the granddaughter
of localite Hy Jacobs.
Mark Golematis, assis-
tant head maitre d', like
Joseph, has the mark of ex-
cellence . . . Both he and
Joseph are masters at tab-
leside cooking from flaming
desserts to shish kabab on
fiery skewers that literally
light up the softly-lit
Benchmark.
Waitress Evelyn Herman
served us a dinner that
must be ranked with
supremacy . . . The ap-
petizer, Pate Normandy,
breast of veal and breast of
chicken with spices that
brought out the desired
taste-tingles . . . and Cum-
berland sauce of Dijon mus-
tard, orange and lemon
juices, very fine pieces of
their peelings, fresh shal-
lots and Port wine . . . so
very elegant . . . Cumber-
land is an English sauce
used a great deal for game
dishes.
Then a Pina Colata
sherbet to cleanse the pa-
late . . . (coconut and
pineapple.)
During dinner and before
are the lilting violin strains
