Iconic restaurants are online now

UPDATE: We've now posted the list of our Top 25 iconic restaurants older than 25. You can read the story or look through our slideshow And remember to check back tomorrow (Thursday) at 11:30 a.m. for a live chat about our choices. We know we have some passionate fans out there who want to present a case for their own favorite.

EARLIER: The finishing touches have been put on the slideshow, the story has been edited and designed with grace and style--now gentle reader, you must merely fritter away the evening before all is revealed tomorrow morning. Check back here, or at our home page for a link to the slideshow and story.

Want a little hint about what you're going to find on our "25 Over 25" story? Hmm, there are two famous for their hamburgers and two for their hotdogs; two for their grouper sandwiches and one for its ribs; there's one place you'll find older ladies in orthopedic shoes peddling cake; three out-and-out fancy places; two where you can eat Spanish-Cuban food; one with bathtubs; one that donates lavishly to breast cancer research; one where the tagline might as well be "smoke 'em if you got 'em;" one room with a view and one deck with a view; one where you might yell "opa" and one where you might have to yell to be heard over the music.

Any ideas? And once the dust has settled and you want to give me a firm talking to about my choices, tune into the blog on Thursday at 11:30 a.m. for a lively live chat.
