Green Pastures began its 64-year tradition of elegant dining rather quietly. But friends told friends, and the word spread. Austin's neighborhood retreat quickly became known citywide as the place to enjoy sumptuous gourmet dishes, fine wine and true Southern hospitality. Some secrets are simply too good to keep. French-inspired gourmet cuisine, fresh regional specialties, and a decadent selection of our own desserts make dining at Green Pastures a true occasion. Our restaurant also features the 1888 bar and an extensive list of fine wines and champagnes to compliment your meal.

The boomerang table top desgins, now faded and worn around the edges due to thousands of coffee cups, plates, and elbows rubbed across the surface, the spectacular neon signage, and original storefronts have all stood the test of time.

In 1925, Mr. Pilecki built a 31 room gentleman's hotel with a rathskeller at 2990 Yemans Street.

In the 1940's and 50's Hamtramck's population surged to over 50,000 as more immigrants arrived to man the city's factories.

Walking through the neighborhood at that time, you could feel the hospitality and smell the fine cooking typical of European villages.

In 1976, Mr. Pilecki's cellar beer garden became the Polish Village Cafe. His tradition of welcoming immigrants and their descendents continues to this day. (from http://www.thepolishvillagecafe.com)

Life is short, eat dessert first." John Poole may have taken Winston Churchill's words to heart when he opened Poole's Pie Shop in 1945. For six years the cozy spot was a veritable holy grail of pies - all sweet - but soon their patrons wanted more.

In the early 1950's, "chicken slick," sandwiches, and a daily "hot plate" made their way onto the Poole's menu, and the line to be served wrapped around the corner. The pie shop moved out, as Poole's Pies became Poole's Luncheonette, and a downtown hot-spot was born. We'd like to think it was the first.
