“There were two divisions in the restaurants I used to visit⟳. One division, which was patronized by fairly well-to-do people, provided any number⟳ of courses from which one chose and paid for à la carte, each dinner thus costing from one to two shillings. The other division provided six-penny dinners of three courses with a slice of bread. In my days of strict frugality I usually dined in the second division.”
