Buying the New Yorker 1996 - page 8

The Surry Hotel is now an Affinia Hotel. I've never heard of Affinia Hotels, but that shouldn't be a strike against it. It looks quite swank.

And they take doggies! In a very swank sort of way! I like that.

Unfortunately, the "famed Restaurant Daniel" is no longer there. In its place is the Cafe Boulud, run by "Renowned Chef Daniel Boulud." I have no idea that the Daniel who ran the "famed Restaurant Daniel" is the same Daniel Boulud, but for some reason I hope it is.

If I had an updated ACCESS New York Restaurant Guide handy, I could look it up, but so far as I can see, it hasn't been updated since 97/98. The plain old ACCESS New York guide should do fine in a pinch.

A night in the Surrey Hotel - $500 average (dog spa appointments start at $15).

ACCESS New York Restaurant Guide 97/98 - $0.33 used on Amazon.
