Jimmy's, in fact, is a different sort of world, and Co-Owner Sid Davidoff is the first to admit it. "Pavilion we're not," he says. Jimmy's menu is in keeping with the clientele the restaurant was designed to attract: steaks, chops and seafood for the New York politicians, writers and celebrities who jammed its ample premises (once occupied by Toots Shor's) on opening night last week.

He noted that restaurants, hotels, hospitals and other institutions that serve food often have to buy their supplies from a number of sources-meat from one distributor, fish and seafood from another, produce from still another. Sanford sensed the need for an all-in-one service that would provide a complete line of foods-from goose to mousse.
