The menu and placemats in this restaurant tell the story of James Michael Curley, an Irish immigrant who served in the United States House of Representatives, as the mayor of Boston, Massachusetts, and as Governor of Massachusetts. Curley's personal and political life were full of turmoil.
Curley is honored with two statues in a small park near Faneuil Hall within view of the Purple Shamrock. One statue has him standing giving a speech and the other statue is seated on a park bench.
