Breakfast At Tiffany's

[bigwheelzip]

Are you a fan of Truman Capote's Holly Golightly or Audrey Hepburn? Tiffany NY just opened it's only restaurant, The Blue Box Cafe, at their flagship jewelry store, and they serve breakfast.

Might be fun, for a NYC reasonable starting price of thirty bucks.

That ain’t breakfast. Where are the grits, hog jowl, pork chops, red-eye gravy and hen fruit? Also I don’t see a single “John Deere,” “CAT” or “CASE” ball cap.

Going to New York City just doesn't sit well with me. I don't know about eating at Tiffany's, but I am terribly in love with Audrey Hepburn.

The food looks good-though the portions are too small-even for me.

 

[Kurusu]

Don't forget the music. Please.

My wife and I just recently watched it, it was the first time for both of us. I thought it was a great movie!

I'd probably pass on the restaurant, though.

Top plate, the blue egg nestled in a bird's next I do believe
is you hen fruit.

Still, no hash browns smothered in fresh grease as served
at Awful House.

One of the "new" features among restaurants is to have
Sunday and Saturday brunches in which basically breakfast
food is served. Breakfast food just happens to be among
the lowest cost commodities a restaurant can serve.

When I was younger brunch meant things like expensive
lox and cheeses as well as lobster dishes. Of course the
fixed price for those brunches was much higher than
the "new" brunches.

For something really interesting: Did you know Katherine Hepburn used to dance for German SS Officers during WWII?

Look it up, you'll be surprised!!

I had breakfast at Tiffany's, but it was in Te Kuiti New Zealand. Don't know what happened to the photo, NZ is down under, but not sideways.

 

[Squarebutt]

I'd only go if Audrey Hepburn was our waitress.

Some people will fall for anything.

 

[Wee Hooker]

Looks like one of those places where I'd leave broke and hungry. (Once)

Whaaat?!

I just Googled that and nothing turned up. You just messin’ with us bear?!

 

[les.b]

I think bear is mixing up Katherine Hepburn with Audrey. They are not related. Audrey's father was English, and her mother was Dutch. She was living in occupied Holland near Arnem during WWII.


BTW...nice thread, BWZ!


Best Regards, Les

I liked both Hepburns though both were a bit
too scrawny.

I've never been able to sit through "Breakfast at Tiffany's". The main reason is Holly Golightly. While I normally love any movie with Audrey Hepburn in it, this movie is an exception. Holly tries so hard to be eccentric, she appears to be incapable of normal human emotion. She is neither amusing nor charming as a result. She merely appears to be someone who is trying too hard to maintain a cool, wacky facade. If it's obvious that someone is working too hard to maintain a certain public image, then they come across as fake and annoying. To me, that's Holly Golightly.

 

[DWalt]

Yes, Kathryn was a New England aristocrat. Probably was never anywhere even close to any SS officers during WWII.

Breakfast at Tiffany's is one of my favorite movies, and I have watched it at least 4-5 times. But my most favorite Audrey Hepburn movie is one most here have probably never seen or heard of - "Two for the Road" in which she co-starred with Albert Finney, also with one of my lesser-known favorite actresses, Eleanor Bron. I think it is coming up on TCM in the next week or so.

Together, these two were magical:

In that case:

I like Audrey Hepburn, but I sure like Joan Blondell a lot...

Well, yeah, but to quote Tracy on Katherine, “There's not much meat on her, but what there is is cherce!”
