Comments:
David Embury in "The Fine Art
of Mixing Drinks" (1948), says
that the Sidecar was developed
in a Parisian bistro during
World War I by a gentleman
who was driven to a favorite
bar in the sidecar of a motor-
cycle. Which bar this was is
left to speculation, but it is
popularly thought to be
Harry's New York Bar.
