Bramley told me how it would be.

Consommy, he said--that's soup--consommy, the whole enduring time.

Fish _frite_ or fried, roast beef _a l'Italienne_ or mixed up with vegetables.
Beans--well, just beans, and if you don't like 'em you can leave 'em, but that fourth course is never anything but beans.

After that you get a chicken cut up with lettuce, because if it was put on the table whole some disappointed investigator might find out there was nothing inside and file a complaint.

Anything to support that unstuffed chicken?
Nope.
Finishing up with a compote of canned fruit, mostly California pears that want more cooking, and after that cheese, if you like cheese, and coffee charged extra.
