LEO MERTZ'S KOSHER CAFE KATON 23055 COOLIDGE • Oak Park 547-3581 FOR PEOPLE CONCERNED ABOUT KASHRUTH! the elegant decor at the restaurant, knowing full well that you can't eat ambience. "Speaking of atmosphere, by the way, have you been to Sebastian's yet in Somerset Mall? It is a feast for the eyes with its sophisticated Manhattan chic. It's tempting to dawdle over appetizers while you listen to nostalgic, sensuous music on the piano. The escargot is deliciously dif- ferent, not served in shells but rolled into crusty puff pastries. And you'd never guess that delicious concoc- tion you may order is lox and onion with a sour cream base. The presentation on the plate is attractive, but some of the shrimp entrees were rated about a 6 from some of our party. The fish was fresh and delicately prepared. The veal, heavy on the garlic, was rated a 7. The pastry cart is a beautiful visual delight but some of the offerings look bet- ter than they taste." A MAN WHO happened to find himself in a strange neighborhood at lunch time entered a restaurant and ordered a plate of borscht .. . "No borscht," said the waiter. "No soup of any kind." . . . "Then I'll have some roast chicken," said - the customer . . . "We have no chicken," said the waiter firmly .. . "How about fish?" . . . "We're out of that too." . . . The customer sighed, "All right, then just bring me a glass of tea and a roll." . . . "Good Heavens!" the waiter ex- claimed. "A man with an ap- petite like yours I never saw in my whole life!" AMONG the prime secrets at Rialto Restaurant, Wood- ward and Nine Mile in Fern- dale, is a meat sauce owners Charlie and Frank Pappas put on their spaghetti . . . It has its own thickness . . . without the use of corn starch . . . and if there is any, it's very little . . . This is pure tomatoes and meat. The recipe is one given to Charlie when he worked years back at the old Book- Cadillac Hotel . . . Charlie was a waiter then and Victor Bianco, assistant chef to Ex- ecutive Chef Mark Schmidt, revealed the secret that was a famed Book-Cadillac delight. Thanksgiving Day is al- ways a biggie at Rialto .. . and this past one wasn't any different than others . . . Charlie and Frank cut up fif- teen 32-pound fresh turkeys for their holiday customers.
