 Okay thanks. It concerns the following post by Rick Marks about Artie's Homestead.

"Wasn't that restaurant at the bottom of Orchard and White Plains Road Artie's Homestead? It was a very nice steakhouse that specialized in serving Porterhouse steaks for two, three or four. Rumor was that the upstairs bedroom at one time served as a bordello. Artie's later became Jason's."


Yes, that was the name of the restaurant. It was owned and operated by Artie and Grace Pressel. Their daughter Barbara was a member of EHS '51. My folks were personal friends of Artie and Grace and we dined there on average of three times a month from about 1946 to 1955. There was nothing going on upstairs other than being the personal residence of the family. Artie was a great cook in this small operation and he did serve delicious steaks and 4-inch thick pork chops that were broiled in a gas stove standing on edge. Also served a great shrimp cocktail! Grace was the hostess and she loved to sit and chat with her customers while enjoying a drink. It's funny how after 50 to 60 years one can remember specific things such as this. Thanks for the memories.
