scenes, and darling little yellow pots with red geraniums in them. But all that he will say about it now is that they put all their money on the wails instead of m the kitchen and that he doesn't know whether it was the colour scheme or file crab salad that induced ptomaine, but any way he isn't going to take another chance on either. My husband is so parti cular.
Not that I'm not very careful about what we have to eat out here in Shanghai and I just stand over the boy with a copy of the Municipal Gazette with Dr. Davis's health hints and advice on what to eat in hot weather. Still, one does like to get_a meal downtown sometimes and when you can find a-place where every possible sanitary precaution is taken I think you. are very lucky. Have you and I cam have romantic, sepulch-' been to the Yellow Jacket, the new place for teas and tiffins at 17 Nanking Road, first floor? No! Well you must. It's the most art: stic little snuggery you ever saw and the cookery is just as good as the decorations. My husband says he doesn't mind how artistic a restaurant is provided the proprie-for doesn't get so interested in the centre pieces that she forgets to broil the steak.
My husband even suggests going to this tea room because they have real man's chow as well as the dainties that women are supposed to like and he 's always asking why I can't get the cook to fry the chicken the way they do it there. You know that three trained nurses are marriaging the Yellow Jacket, even doing the cooking, and if that doesn't make the place about as germproof as any kitchen could be then I'd_ like to know what could. He is going to tak all his tiffins there while Tm away for the summer, and get a special monthly rate on them. They are going to make a speciality of cold drinks and dishes in this hot weather.and of course all their ice is foreign manufactured.
