"According to further legend, Harry's New York Bar was opened in 1911, 1923 or 1924.  It was the location of the world's first Bloody Mary cocktail in 1921, and of the first hot dog served in France, in 1925.  In less doubt is the name of Harry MacElhone, who took over the existing New York Bar in the Rue Daunou near the Opéra, most likely in 1911 or 1912 (based on the sign in the window in 2001).  The bar is famous for the invention of forty other cocktails."
