‘We ate everything; every dish
was really distinguished. I rank this
meal with a meal that I once ate at
the Étoile restaurant at Brussels,
once, if not still, the finest

Strand.
‘In addition, there were three
wines, a vin blanc ordinaire, a vin
rouge ordinaire, and a fine wine to
finish with. The fine wine was fine.
