Small and So Necessary

1t seems to us that the least
OF all praise in the Washington
restaurant business goes tC
that segment which perhaps is
due more credit than any
other.
We speak of those many res
taurants which might be called
neighborhood.
Gourmets seldom visit them
it's true, but year in and year
out these small nearby restau-
rants serve their patrons
many of them faithful, night.
after-night customers - both
tasty and wholesome food al
prices so reasonable that you
wonder how they stay ir
business.
Their success, however, 1.
gratifying, particularly wher
you realize that the District il
like all other cities-not every.
one in it can night after night
spend S. to $40 for dinner.
In a very real sense, par
ticularly in terms of the mum.
Der of diners they serve ovel
the period of a year, these
neighborhood eateries are the
backbone of the Districts res.
taurant business. They ask
little and give much. Anyone
who knows the city probably
can think of three or four such
restaurants in his own immedi-
ate neighborhood right off the
bat, Some night when you fee,
you would like a homecookeC
meal-the overriding charac.
teristic of these laudable es.
tablishments-but don't wan
to dress up or make a produc.
ton out of it, give one a try.
A Typical One
You won't, of course, fine
an elegant decor or roast Lonl
Island duckling bigarde with
wild rice. But you will fine
such things as homemade ho
rolls. very fresh green salads
vegetables not cooked in sal
water but with ham hook, rea

rate spoon bread, homemade
pies and cakes, the best ict
cream, and last but not least
a surprisingly wide choice O
entrees, from roast spring laml
or pork chops to veal scallopin
or a filet mignon.
] Typical of this noteworth,
group is the Little Vienna Res
taurant at 2122 Pennsylvania
avenue NV. We are sure Vol
can think Of others, but tn,
Little Vienna was our choicl

Evening star., 1961-08-24

True to form, the owners,
Mr.. and Mrs. George Howard,
IL years in the business, make
no great effort to decorate.
Their energies are directed to-
ward serving tasty, ,homecooked
food in an informal atmos-
phere. They are aided immeas-
urably by Chef Emil whose ca
reer in the District began many
years ago at the Mayflower
Hotel.
A look at the Little Vienna
menu gives a valid example of
the wide selections the neigh
borhood restaurants m axe
available to their diners day
after day.
It's appetizers run from fresh
shrimp cocktails and celery
hearts and olives to the soup
du jour and chilled juices.
There also are French onion
soup and cold jellied consomme
The salads run from avocado
and hearts Of lettuce to freshly
cut fruit.
The entree list totals % Sc
lectionS-from wiener Schnitzel,
sauerbraten and Hungarian
gulyas to calf sweetbreads,
baked sugar cured ham, roast
spring lamb and four steak
choices, including a filet mi
gnon. In-between there are
shish kebab, butter-creamed
Clipped beef, natural cheddar
cheese omelette, roast turkey
and calf's liver.
SeafOOd, Too
There is also a seafood list
offering broiled rock lobster
tail, swordfish steak, filet of
haddock, shrimp Norfolk and
salmon steak. A third list offers
a fresh avocado stuffed with
shrimp salad, French toast
with Vermont maple syrup, a
cold plate of meats and cheeses,
and sliced breast of turkey.
AS is true in many of the
neighborhood establishments
the coffee is noteworthy, too.
The vegetables run from
stewed ripe tomatoes to
steamed cauliflower.
The desserts, all of them
homemade, give the diner-out
a choice Of peach. apple or
Icocoanut cream pie, homemade
cake, apple strudel, Austrian

he was in an unfamiliar field

And that was how I dis

There was another one, too.
Matt Windsor, who now owns
the Student Prince on Four

day as he recalled his fire.
Matt had been an earlier
bandleader at the Troika and
was launching an enterprise of
his own called the Volga Boat
man, at l Thomas Circle, when
he got Singed.
1t was the gala opening night
and free leaders by the score
