During a recent trip to New York (where Frank collected a little award) Stuart Robertson, Frank and I went for lunch to an excellent restaurant with a very good whisky bar. Keens Steak House [ http://www.keens.com/ ], on 72nd west 36th street was established in 1885, and very little has changed since. It has the largest collection of Churchwarden pipes in the world, and also has on display the original theater program of "Our American Cousin," which President Lincoln held in his hand when he was shot by John Wilkes Booth. They do a mean Chowder, and have First Edition Hazelburn behind the bar. Well worth a visit. Also picture is Bonnie Jenkins, who gave us an enjoyable tour of the building.
