The Times takes the news of Graydon Carter buying Monkey Bar as an opportunity to revisit his famed and exclusive Waverly Inn. No big shockers here: the food is "besides the point" and an impressive list of A-listers and media moguls eat here nightly. However, we do like this fun tidbit: "The reservations system has miniprofiles on clients: the number of times they have eaten at the restaurant...whether they complained about the food, whether they yelled at a waiter...Has anyone been blacklisted?...Varda admits that there is one group. 'B-list stars who call the paparazzi from inside the restaurant...'" [NYT]
