摘要

If you'd wanted to gauge the mood of manhattans richest people in the midst of the economic meltdown, you might have dropped in on Swifty's restaurant the other night, in the chic precincts of the Upper East Side, where the brown leather banquettes are home to insiders who don't mind sitting in proximity to people just like themselves. Whether they are neighbors at the Park Avenue co-op down the block or played together on the Exeter lacrosse team 30 years ago, almosteveryone in Swifty's knows everyone else. Even in this cozy refuge, the catastrophe unfolding a limousine ride away on Wall Street is being felt, leading co-owner Robert Caravaggi to call a special employee meeting last week. "We told the staff to be mindful of the economic situation and to take extra-good care of the customers and to be aware of what's going on in their lives," he said. Business at Swifty's is holding up, because misery loves company even among millionaire bankers, and because belt-tightening in this set doesn't mean cooking your own dinner, it means flying commercial instead of chartering a jetto fly to Aspen for the Columbus Day weekend. (Not that they couldn't afford the $80,000 round trip, I heard several say, but it just didn't "feel right.") Everyone is talking about the fabulous new JetBlue terminal at JFK airport with its gourmet food delivery.
