Eater Nostalgia: When The French Laundry Cost $29

Coming to us via SF Citizen, the trip down memory lane you see above was taken from the 1987 Zagat Survey (or as SFC puts it, "the Yelp of its day"), approximately seven years before Master Keller took the keys to the French Laundry. Back then, the average dinner at 6640 Washington was $29 (roughly $211 cheaper than it is now) and "not always brilliant." What a difference a Thomas makes.
