Let’s just hope the food is as good as Blanche’s love life.
A Washington Heights’ resident is opening up the world’s first “Golden Girls”-themed restaurant in the Big Apple.
Michael J. LaRue, a close friend of Rue McLanahan — who played the Southern belle Blanche on the sitcom — says he plans to open the memorabilia-furnished Rue La Rue Café in September, according to DNAInfo.com.

Well, I'm out. Thanks for stopping by folks! We have a gift shop near the exit if you'd like to pick up a little something for family or friends. Drive safe and good night.

Re: Hepcat is already camped outside
In case you were wondering:
After a few weeks in business, the Rue La Rue Cafe is already a very busy. Here are some of the things inside the restaurant that will likely impress Golden Girls superfans:
• Two walls with the same “banana leaf Martinique” wallpaper that McClanahan’s character, Blanche, had in her bedroom.
• A shrine to the yellow phone that the ladies used on the show.
• A wall dedicated to photos of McClanahan’s husbands, and another that’s entirely full of Betty White pictures.
• Pink and mint checkered tiles in the bathroom, just like at the Golden Girls house, as well as a door depicting a naked rear end on one side and an exposed breast on the other (this was part of McClanahan’s personal art collection).

Hep's favorite publication, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, recently did a Golden Girls retrospective and I must admit it kind of made me want to go back and watch reruns.

I thought his favorite publication was Barely Legal.
I spent 90% of the money I made on women, booze, and drugs. The other 10% I just pissed away.

Hepcat didn't go here often enough. Golden Girls Cafe Shutters After Less Than a Year.

Great opportunity for Hepcat to pick up Golden Girls themed decorations for his residence at bargain prices, however.

Re: Hepcat is already camped outside
In Miami, they can only go as far their golf carts can take them. South Beach would be out of the question. But with a location here, Hepcat could hold daily court and likely future Octocons. Bad for Jolly Inn and Plaster Jesus, but otherwise a win.
