<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><font size="2">We've lost some great restaurants over the years. Before Montmartre, <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">in the 1980s </span>La Brasserie was my spot for French food and a special meal out on the Hill (Gaby's la bourride, for example). Other standard-setters for their time were 209 1/2 and the Broker, so let's remember those pioneers in better dining, too, who chose a Hill location. </font></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><font size="2">This loss is sad, too, and even more so, when with every loss, one can't help but wonder if there is any way that we could have helped make it work. <span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">I wish we could encourage them to reopen somewhere. One of t</span></span>he owners probably is right: we need to rethink a new concept in dining with different spatial arrangements and accommodations. Right now no one seems to have the answer. Maybe together we can help them figure it out. But in the meantime, we're losing too many businesses and of all sorts.</font></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><font size="2">Yesterday when I saw Montmartre's door open, there was hope that they were thinking about how to reopen. Instead, they said they were closing. I bought a few things as memories and to help them get rid of inventory. But the real memories are the delicious meals, the wines, the lovely service, the chef checking out the scene from the kitchen, the convivial atmosphere, and whiing away an evening on the patio where one could also enjoy the neighborhood. It was never too "important" to relax and they had a clever idea to pair it with a pizza place. Whether it's your or my favorite place or not, whether a humble or sophisticated spot, with every empty storefront that I pass these days, I wonder not only if we could have done more but what it will take to keep them--and us--going.</font></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><font size="2"><br></font></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><font size="2">Judy</font></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-size: 16px;"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-size: 16px;"><br></div>
