Sapphire Chinese Restaurant, New York City

Google readily tells us that this restaurant opened in 1981 but there’s no hint that it’s still there now. Among other little mysteries, the postcard says this restaurant was a winner of the Stanley Blacker Award for Pleasurable Dining, but when you put that into Google you get the idea the award didn’t really catch on. One more thing: their telephone number is now the fax number for an architectural firm. Anyway, the restaurant may be gone but the card is here, and unused. Grade: 1
