K-9 CLUB, 105 East Walton Place

An odd sort of a place, serving luncheons, dinners, and after-theatre suppers — in fact, any kind of meal any time of day or night. The luncheons are 35 cents. Stenographers from the Palmolive Building on Michigan Avenue come here, as well as clerks and taxi drivers. It is alleged to be an eating place for radio and theatrical stars, but few, if any, are ever seen here. Photographs of the stars adorn the walls. Once, a dog club occupied these quarters, hence the name "K-9." The place features Pig's Feet Alley, where pig's feet are served. Delaware 0605.
