Wall Street restaurants are probably the only ones in the world where the ulcer-treating diet of crackers & milk is listed as a specialty of the house. One eating place proudly lists six different combinations: a choice of sal tines or graham crackers with milk, half & half, or cream. At least one "they" expert was no longer operating: Frederick N.
