There was a Runyonesque feel to the last day at Tad’s Steakhouse in Times Square. Guys and Dolls, the musical, was based on Damon Runyon's characters from twenties and thirties.
Tad’s broiled their first meals here in NYC in 1955 where a guy could buy a doll a steak for a buck.
On the evening of January 5th, 2020, dreamers, lovers, and out-of-towners in fur waited in line for one last nicely nicely priced steak. No longer a buck but way less than a bushel and a peck.
Where can Nathan Detroit find a decent meal in this town anymore?
