:I am unsure. The sense I had from reading the story was that it probably was. Turtledove would have likely gotten the name from Pepys' diary if it was but there probably wouldn't be much more historical info available.

I notice in the Turks disambiguation page that it's called a 15th century restaurant. Where did that come from? The story is set in the 17th century, and I don't think any ancient history of the restaurant is mentioned. Is it just a typo?[[User:JonathanMarkoff|JonathanMarkoff]] ([[User talk:JonathanMarkoff|talk]]) 03:37, November 29, 2015 (UTC)
