(0 ratings)
Lindey's, the legendary bistro in Columbus's historic German Village, has served over half a million meals, welcomed hundreds of thousands of guests, and hosted umpteen parties of every imaginable kind--but it's the unimaginable number of campy servers, fanatical chefs, and infamous regulars whose antics and expectations, like salt and pepper, have created Lindey's inimitable flavor.
As the Tables Turn, is a riotous chronicle of a real-life "Cheers," a neighborhood bar and restaurant opened by a "den mother" from the suburbs without a jot of restaurant experience in a "white elephant" location (so wrote the Columbus Dispatch). But Sue Doody's Lindey's endured the years of "too many chefs"; of too few tables to make ends meet; of waiters "who served more attitude than food"; of zoning nightmares, parking fiascos, cursed equipment failures, and each new manager's valiant innovations (a roving accordionist? peacocks in the courtyard? flaming desserts in a historic landmark with wooden floors?). More than 30 years later, Lindey's remains one of the most popular, inventive, and profitable bistros in the nation.
