Restauranteur Rejects Hedge Fund Area Code
Filed in archive Hedgetalk on August 14, 2008
Paula Schaap, writer for HFN reports; Editor-turned-restaurant owner Graydon Carter told The New York Times that the asset class and reality TV stars won't find a welcome at his Greenwich Village restaurant the Waverly Inn.
He was quoted as saying that the restaurant regularly screens out those calling from Connecticut's 203 area code, known to be the home of many a hedge fund tycoon.
It is possible that Carter, who is the editor of Vanity Fair, might not be engaged in the kind of reverse snobbery that his exclusion list would imply. In addition to hedge fund executives, the restaurant won't re-admit patrons who have been rude to the staff.
The Times article did not review the food, although it did note that $55 was a steep price for macaroni and cheese with truffles. Especially when hedge fund-types aren't around to foot the bill.
