I was looking through an old recipe folder, trying to find a clipping from the sixties, when I came upon this old menu from the seventies. Looking at these prices, I'm a little stunned; at the time I thought the Soho Charcuterie was an unimaginably expensive restaurant.
I also found this fax from my friend Marion Cunningham; I think I'd asked her for a quick and easy cake to bake for Michael's birthday. But I love the way she used language.
