Lindey s, the legendary bistro in Columbus s historic German Village, has served over half a million meals, welcomed hundreds of thousands of guests, and hosted umpteen parties of every imaginable kind but it s the unimaginable number of campy servers, fanatical chefs, and infamous regulars whose antics and expectations, like salt and pepper, have created Lindey s inimitable flavor.As the Tables Turn is a riotous chronicle of a real-life Cheers, a neighborhood bistro opened by a den mother from Upper Arlington without a jot of restaurant experience in a white elephant location (so wrote the Columbus Dispatch). But Sue Doody s restaurant endured the years of too many chefs ; of too few tables and too many regulars expecting their table to be open; of waiters who served more attitude than food ; of zoning nightmares, parking fiascos, cursed equipment failures, and each new manager s crazy innovations (a roving accordionist? peacocks in the courtyard? flaming desserts in a jam-packed historic landmark with wooden floors?).Twenty-five years later, Lindey s remains one of the most popular, inventive, and profitable bistros in the nation, the flagship of the Doody family s 60 fine-dining establishments.
