When we lived in Ohio, I had spend much time in Manhattan and had been
to the World Trade Center many times, and had eaten at Windows on the
World a fair number of times. For at least the first half hour I
watched the horrifying spectacle in almost total disbelief. I called a
friend who lived and worked in the East Village and we stayed on the
phone for over an
hour, figuratively holding hands. My friend was terrified all of
Manhattan
would be blown to bits.
The tragedy and horror of this event will stick in my mind forever.

Unfortunately Windows had adequate food at best but the several times we
were there the service was all but non existent. Horrible!
The darkened bar with the several story windows the overlooked the
entrance to the harbor was magnificent. A great place on a cold evening
to sip a drink and see forever........

Yes, you're quite right about the food. I had wanted to take David there
just for the experience, as he had never been there. There was nothing
quite like the view.
still, it seems a long way for the saudis to go just to destroy a mediocre
restaurant.
