Alcohol Is The Monarch Of Liquids.

You First Parents Of The Human Race...who Ruined Yourself For An Apple, What Might You Have Done For A Truffled Turkey?

All Men, Even Those We Call Savages, Have Been So Tormented By The Passion For Strong Drinks, That Limited As Their Capacities Were, They Were Yet Able To Manufacture Them.

At The Time I Write, The Glory Of The Truffle Has Now Reached Its Culmination. Who Would Dare To Say That He Has Been At A Dinner Where There Was Not A Pièce Truffée? Who Has Not Felt His Mouth Water In Hearing Truffles A La Provencale Spoken Of? In Fine, The Truffle Is The Very Diamond Of Gastronomy.

Some Dishes Are Of Such Indisputable Excellence That Their Appearance Alone Is Capable Of Arousing A Level-headed Man's Degustatory Powers. All Those Who, When Presented With Such A Dish, Show Neither The Rush Of Desire, Nor The Radiance Of Ecstasy, May Justly Be Deemed Unworthy Of The Honors Of The Sitting, And Its Related Delights.

The Discovery Of A New Dish Confers More Happiness On Humanity, Than The Discovery Of A New Star.
