The Ambassador Room

"The Pump Room was established in 1938 by renowned Chicago hotelier and restaurateur Ernie Byfield. Frank Sinatra was a frequent visitor there, in "Chicago (That Toddlin' Town)", he sang: "We'll meet at the Pump Room-Ambassador East/To say the least, on shish kebab and breast of squab we will feast/And get fleeced". Even Phil Collins was inspired by the elegant room. So much so that when he was turned away for not adhering to the dress code, he named his hit 1985 album, "No Jacket Required," after the incident."
