Nostalgia does not a meal make at Oak Room

Following up on a Post story from several weeks go, the New York Times today writes the obit for The Plaza's Oak Room restaurant, which will close next month. The new owners haven't said what will go in after the renovation, but apparently not everyone is broken up that the legendary spot is fading into the sunset:

"The food's been indifferent and the prices are exorbitant," said Curt Gathje, a former Plaza historian and author of "At the Plaza: An Illustrated History of the World's Most Famous Hotel."
