G T RESTAURANT, 100 East Ohio Street

This place took over the Triangle Restaurant idea of poetic menus and carried it much further. The dishes are described in the most glowing terms and you are bound to get hungry reading them. They have one specialty, unique in Chicago. Steaks are cooked in triangular tin pans, and are served in them with the natural juice. Many a hand is burned from touching these pans, but the steaks are thick, tender, and delicious. And you will enjoy the amusing drawings of chefs and cooks and bakers painted in modernistic style on the walls. Open until late. Delaware 1510.
