Non-Fiction Memoir
After the events of 9/11 all but destroy their Tribeca loft
in New York City, Lewis and Tracey Gross and their three
coming of age sons relocate to their summer home in Montauk
in the East Hamptons. Tracey loves to cook and has always
dreamed of starting her own restaurant. Their goal is to
turn a run-down ice cream parlor into a functional
restaurant that serves substantial honest fare. Montauk Tango provides an account of this family's journey
to restaurant ownership, from the purchase of the property
to its renovation and eventual opening in a seaside summer
retreat. Author Lewis Gross believes 668 the Gig Shack, a Bohemian
bistro, will be an immediate hit. But opening weekend is a
disaster. Unfortunately, some of the locals don't want to
see their fish turned into tacos or fishnets worn as
stockings. Novices in business, they encounter many setbacks
and a conspiracy by some of the locals to put them out of
business. With a touch of humor, this real-life story accounts the
stresses of opening a family restaurant business, weekend
fatherhood, and an attempt to teach tango dancing to the
local surfers and fishermen.
