When you’re finished reading this magazine, why not stop by America’s newest nostalgia-themed restaurant The Atomic CafĂ©?
Relive those fabulous fifties in an atmosphere of fear, paranoia and good eatin’! The war may be cold but the food is piping hot! Try some of our delicious entrĂ©es, like the Duck and Cover l’Orange, served to you under your table with its head between its juicy, succulent legs! Or how ’bout our Nikita Fajita – smothered in Russian dressing but full of Latin flavor, it’s sure to overthrow your Battist-buds! Or try one of our world-famous appetizers, like Bay of Pigs in a Blanket, or our Stuffed Mushroom Cloud! And if you too have a Francis Gary Power-ful thirst, wash it down with a cup of Naga sake! So learn to stop worrying – you’ll love The Atomic CafĂ©! Bring the whole nuclear family – it’s fail-safe to say you’ll have the time of your half-life, dĂ©tente or night!
Right down the street from McCarthy’s (over 5 million subpoenaed) – are you now or have you ever been hungry?
