ANGLO-INDIAN CUISINE : OLD LUNCHEON MENU OF FIRPO CATERERS

OLD LUNCHEON MENU OF FIRPO CATERERS

Some Nostalgia -

An old Menu dated Friday the 30th March 1945 of A FIRPO LTD CATERERS, CALCUTTA.
A 3 Course Luncheon Spread with Coffee costed just 2 Rupees and 12 Annas only. The Diner was also given a choice of soups and starters while ...the Main Course featured Seafood, Meat and Poultry. The Luncheon was rounded off with a Dessert, Fruit and a Cup of Coffee!! Truly a feast for a King.
The old dishes mentioned on the Menu are not served in any Resturant today.
