Le Petit Écho de la mode 31 août 1924


A recreation of La Bignole: in a restaurant, who does what?

AT THE RESTAURANT

A small piece of cork falls into a glass of champagne. Did you know that this simple incident can allow you to recognize the nationality of your neighbors?

You just have to observe what happens.

- The Englishman calls the waiter and asks for a spoon to remove the piece of cork that is floating.
- The Russian asks for another glass with a new bottle.
- The Frenchman removes the cork with the tip of his finger.
- As for the German, naturally, he swallows everything, the wine and the cork.
