Part of baked shellfish fad?

Latest comment: 14 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

This book [1] says it is one of the survivors, along with Oysters Rockefeller of a baked shellfish dish fad. I will add this hopefully soon or someone else can. This source has a bit more on the Hotel [2]. It burnt down a couple times, but bacon grease fire is not directly implicated as the cause. ChildofMidnight (talk) 01:44, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

"It burnt down a couple times, but bacon grease fire is not directly implicated as the cause." Huh? Jmdeur (talk) 08:55, 21 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

This source [3] says New York, but Narrangansett (sp?) appears to be in Rhode Island, and the Rhode Island article takes credit. So I'm going with R.I. ChildofMidnight (talk) 02:02, 7 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
