The text ("One tendency that has almost totally vanished, for example, was the practice of eating plates of raw vegetables as an appetizer. For much of the 1900s, restaurant-goers would start their meal with plate of celery, radishes and olives") did remind me of my grandparents. When I was a child, they accompanied every lunch and dinner with a plate of raw carrot and celery sticks - radishes in season. No olives that I can remember, but maybe olives were winter fare and I don't remember. > > I wonder if you will find ours any better ... > > http://www.essentially-england.com/t...h-recipes.html Considering our roots, American food is essentially just a variation of English food - with a few other cultures thrown in for good measure. -- sf |

Three kinds of raw veggies with dressing of your choice for dipping. That, for me, is the appeal of the place. Yeah, I know I can eat those things at home. But if I have to go out... Works for me. |

I have been to France four times over the last 20 years and I have seen lots of menus and had lots of appetizers. I don't recall ever seeing raw vegetables as an appetizer. The closest I have seen to that was a carrot salad that was heavy on garlic and pepper. |

We had that too. Usually for lunch. Pickles too. We didn't have olives all the time. They were mainly for holidays or company but once in a while for regular meals. I wonder why? When we did have them, they were rationed. We were each allowed 5 black and 5 green. No more. Were olives insanely expensive in those days are something? Those particular types aren't now although there are some expensive olives. |

We ate at a restaurant in Wisconsin and I saw some metal things on many of the tables. They had a handle at the top and a lot of little bowls in them of various things. I can't remember now what all was in there but there were pickles, olives, raw veggies and maybe a coleslaw or pea salad or something like that. I hadn't even looked at the menu yet but I told the waitress that my daughter and I wanted to share one of those for sure. What I didn't realize was that every table got one for no charge. She just kind of looked at me weirdly, brought the two of us one and another one for my husband. We then made the mistake of ordering meals. I think I just ordered one thing for Angela and I to share but the portions were huge! We got a basket of assorted breads for free too. And a free dessert was included which we declined. Seriously, with all of that food we didn't even *need* a meal. I think my husband made the mistake of ordering some sort of appetizer as well. We just kind of sat there going... OMG! We couldn't really take the leftovers with us either because we were in a motel with no fridge. That was one of the better meals we ever ate though. |
