Elaine’s was admittedly not serving the best food in town although, there was always the bar; writers, actors and others in the know congregated at Elaine’s for years, and she and the saloon were so much a part of the New York City scene. She controlled it with an iron fist, and customers today must be wondering if it will be able to survive without her.
