Stay clean AND classy with this napkin tie.
In related news, restaurant "21" Club in New York City recently rescinded their ties-required policy. Ties are however still required in the Wine Cellar, its private 20-seat dining room.
The tie drawer in the “21” cloakroom — where generations of patrons have repaired their faux-pas — is as much a part of the restaurant’s lore as its checked tablecloths and the ceiling dangling with dozens of (obsessively dusted) toy airplanes, ships and football helmets (including that of Frank Gifford). The restaurant’s publicist, Ms. Biederman, said it would continue to proffer ties to the needy who prefer them.
"I remember one night they loaned me a navy blue fly-fishing tie — you know, with the flies on it,” Mr. Hennessy recalled. “I told them I liked it — and they gave it to me! I still have it."
