Jammet Restaurant

**Status:** Closed. **Text:** *Ulysses* by James Joyce. > "that highclass whore in Jammet's" Joyce also gives the restaurant as a place of "standing fizz in Jammet's." A mere mention does a lot of work: French style, expense, champagne, gossip, and sexual rumor. Because Jammet's was Dublin's grand French restaurant, the name carried class aspiration all by itself. Its literary role is shorthand for upscale cosmopolitan Dublin. Joyce invokes it not to dwell on the menu but to signal the city's nervous relation to elegance, money, and scandal.
