When I was a kid of 6 or 7 there was a restaurant at the top of the national Mutual building in the city called Pamplemousse. It was the swishest restaurant in town (or at least that was the impression my parents had). There were fabulous 360 degree views of the city. I remember that the waiters were all in dinner suits and called me madam and pulled my chair out to sit down.
Little did I know then I was eating in a grapefruit!
I guess it is no different to going to Sumac, or Green Olive today...only it sounded so much more exotic back then....
