Lindy's Restaurant Open All Night Steak Chicken

[portiaadams]

“Rothstein famously used Lindy’s Restaurant in Times Square as an office, taking calls and messages and holding business meetings at his customary table.. Abe Scher, Lindy’s nighttime cashier, described Rothstein’s routine. For the full effect, it’s best to read this aloud:

Every night he comes here. Regular as clockwork he comes here. Sunday night, Monday night, any night. Everybody knows that. Like always, there are some people waiting for him. They are waiting near his table, the same one where he is always sitting…All day and night, they are telephoning for him here. It ain’t that Mr. Lindy likes the idea, but what can he do? An important man like Mr. Rothstein, you do not offend. So like I am saying, he comes in and goes to his table. He is saying ‘hello’ to people and they are saying ‘hello’ to him. Some fellows, they go to his table and they are talking confidential to him. You know, they are talking into his ear…Did he give anyone money? Who knows? Mr. Rothstein you see, but you do not watch…”
