Book Synopsis Historic Restaurants of Cape Code by : Christopher Setterlund
Download or read book Historic Restaurants of Cape Code written by Christopher Setterlund and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the storied Massachusetts eateries that have left an indelible mark on their customers. Author Christopher Setterlund details the history of the iconic establishments of the Cape, still fresh in the memories of patrons, complete with famous recipes. Bill and Thelma’s was hugely popular with students from the 1950s to the 1970s, often packed with locals after sporting events and dances. Starbuck’s Restaurant in Hyannis featured the Chief Justice Warren Burger Burger and the Larry Bird Burger on its menu and boasted of the soup du jour, “We don't know what it is, but we have it every day.” Opinions differ on how the Reno Diner actually got its name, whether from a broken sign or a local appliance company. This fun collection is sure to arouse some fond memories of these old eateries, and perhaps a little hunger too. “Forty chapters—one each for 39 restaurants and another for some recipes—make for a delicious and nostalgic read.” —Barnstable Patriot
