James Moore puts on the flaming show 5-10 p.m. from a special menu along with re- quests. MAIL DEPT. ... from Judy Isaacs ... "I enjoyed your recent column article in Coco's Korner. Anyone who knows Burt and I know how much we love our Michigan Humane Society adopted mutt, Dexter. I'd like to add one more helpful cold-weath- er tip. When Dexter goes out for his winter walks, we coat his paws with Vaseline. This pro- tects them from the snow and ice. By the time he comes in, the Vaseline has been absorbed, so no need to worry about the car- pet." From Eddie Rogovin ... "The opening again of London Chop House (now called Downtown London Chop House) brings back a lot of very fond memories. The camaraderie that we, the re- turning GIs, had was wonderful. And into the years, it provided many wonderful evenings rll nev- er forget. The food and atmos- phere of London Chop House were excellent. I hope it returns to its former greatness ... or even close." THE SUDDEN suro-e of bagel outlets in this area reveals an im- portant factor ... The dough is mainly made out-of-town and ar- rives here frozen ... making it dif- ficult to compete with local operations ... Detroit is noted for its bagels.
