It's not surprising that the Whitney was a quintuple winner. For those who haven't had a chance to visit the Whitney, the stone mansion on Woodward is beautifully restored.
Service is always courteous and efficient, and the food is outstanding.
So when your rich Aunt Gladys from Poughkeepsie comes to town, get her to take you there. Of course, if you're fresh out of rich aunts, you might try some other stratagems. For instance, if you usually spend three or four bucks a day on fast-food lunches, consider packing a peanut butter sandwich from home for a week. At the end of the week, you'll have saved enough for a lunch at the Whitney. Or you can go and sip a drink or share a dessert in the upstairs bar and soak up the romantic atmosphere.
