HIGHLIGHT: NEW YORK
New York: Brooklyn’s famed Peter Luger Steak House has teamed with Madame Tussauds to have celebrity wax figures mingle with patrons, promoting the easing of restrictions on indoor dining in the city. A wax Jon Hamm – as ad executive Don Draper in “Mad Men” – lingered at the bar Friday, cocktail in hand. Other figures on loan include Michael Strahan, Jimmy Fallon, Al Roker and Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Peter Luger “thought this would be a fun, safe way to fill some of the seats that need to remain empty as we continue to fight the pandemic,” restaurant vice president Daniel Turtel said.
