This is THE Alice from the song Arlo Guthrie made famous in the 1960s, now an anthem to those happy hippie, peace, love, and rock 'n roll days. “You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant / You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant / Walk right in, it's around the back / Just a half a mile from the railroad track / You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant”. The cookbook includes a recorded introduction by Arlo Guthrie on a promotional vinyl record added to the inside back cover. Recipes, philosophy, and photographs from the Massachusetts restaurant made famous by Arlo Guthrie's 1969 counterculture anthem.
