[78-L] ^ anyone know anything about a NY "Israeli nightclub" 1940s/50's called HABIBI

[Thomas Stern]

  I've seen 2 references to HABIBI, described as an Israeli nightclub in NY
City:
  1} Martha Schlamme performed there for 4 months prior to a US-Canada
recital tour - no date given, but prior to her first Town Hall appearance.
  2) dancer/choreographer Hadassah (Spira Epstein) performed there - no
date, implied late 40's.
Anyone ever hear of it? have any references to it?
Thanks.
Best wishes, Thomas.
