Frommer's Recommended

When this restaurant was started by a pair of young politicians in the 1970s, the idea of a kosher deli in Anchorage that sold the Sunday New York Times was just this side of bizarre. As their careers rose -- one became governor and the other helped create Alaska's Permanent Fund -- the restaurant became a local institution and political hot spot. In 1994, President Clinton came for dinner. The restaurant that exists today, however, is less interesting than its history. The look is outdated and the food similar to what you would find in a hotel cafe. The restaurant is convenient for tourists, who are the primary clientele: a handy location, reasonable prices (especially at dinnertime, when downtown is short on inexpensive sit-down places), and kids are treated well. They serve beer and wine.
