It was a different time. Ladies wore gloves; hats and nice attire to luncheons at the Woman's Exchange. Shillito's provided a cosmopolitan environment for its patrons; while Mullane's was the perfect place to sip and socialize. The popular Good Morning Show radio program hosted by charming Bob Braun; and later Nick Clooney; was broadcast from McAlpin's Tea Room. Women gathered at Pogue's and Mabley Carew tea rooms to celebrate birthdays; as well as wedding and baby showers; over dainty tea sandwiches. Author Cynthia Kuhn Beischel brings the Queen City's bygone downtown tea rooms back to life and shares more than one hundred beloved recipes.
