Re: Recipe from the Bird Cage restaurant in Lord and Taylors - 1960s From: Katharine Date: 11/1/2023, 9:20 AM To: PhaedrusOn 10/31/2023 10:16 PM, Katharine wrote: Hello Recipe Hunter, I am seeking the recipe for a childhood favorite: a whipped jello-ish dessert served in the Bird Cage at Lord & Taylor's in New York City, in the 1960s. The dessert was pink (strawberry, I guess) and there was a cream on top of the pink jello-ish square. These were selected from a rolling cart. I would be so grateful if you could find it. Thank you.

Hi Katharine,
I am sorry to say that I have combed the Web and my other resources with no success finding any recipes at all from Lord & Taylor or The Bird Cage
You might be interested in this site: Lunching in the Bird Cage"
I did find a couple of menus from The Bird Cage, but they shed no light on the dessert that you describe. They just said desserts: "From the Wagon."
I will post this. Maybe one of my readers can assist. It would be of help to know what the restaurant itself called the dessert.
