FOOD ALA SCANDINAVIA.
Some Very QUAINT Restaurants Re
Gently Started in New z ork City.

The rapid growth of the Scandinavian
population of New DIRK is shown by the
foundation Of Swedish newspapers, Nor
Wegian societies, Danish clubs, and, last
of all by the quaint restaurants similar
to those found in the smaller cities of
the Morse peninsula. They bear strong
resemblance to the Italian Pensione and
the old fashioned French table d'hOte.
They are quiet and conservative, cater
ing to their own people and making lit
tie or no effort to attract outside Gus
tom Their general type IS a large,
plainly furnished room or hall. in which
a long wide table runs from~one end TO
another. Sometimes small tables are
employed to accommodate possible
overflow from the main one, but these
are the exception and not the rule. on
week days breakfast Is served at Z,
luncheon at Il. and dinner at 6. On
Sundays and holidays breakfast at 3,
dinner at I, and supper at o'clock The
proprietor or his wife presides at the
opening of the meal They eat lightly
and quickly and soon leave their places
to wait upon their guests wise man
comes punctually to the board for then
the food is at its best. If an hour or
two late, the best dishes are exhausted,
and he can eat only what is left over.
The food is generous in quantity and
excellently cooked. Some of the dishes
are familiar to an American or German
palate. Others are peculiar to the
north White bread is used sparingly,
being replaced by rye and other brown
breads, all of which have a sourish
taste Most characteristic is the brown
unleavened bread, which resembles the
Jewish matzOth. but is of a very dark
color Fish is used oftener than it is by
Americans.
In the treatment Of meats, the stew
and. galantine appear 10 be the favOrites.
Beef, veal, mutton, lamb and pork are
baked or boiled sliced, and the slices
stewed in an appetizing sauce. The
galantines are household words. Unlike
the Drawn of England. or the head
cheese of New York, little or no attempt
is made to remove the bones. A Calls
head or rib piece a pigs head or leg, is
broken with a cleaVer and knife and
boiled down to a jelly. This is seasoned
with salt and pepper and sometimes
with spices. and poured into mould,
where It 5ellies and solidifies.
Sausage and smoked, sailed, and pick
led meats are also very common. and are
prepared in many ways. Vegetables and
fruit are used sparingly. The potato,
turnip, and onion among the former, and
the apple, prune, and plum among the
latter being most in vogue.
The drinks are coffee, tea milk. but
termill1, and beer. Cakes and buildings
are common; pastry uncommon.
Restaurant prices are very reasonabIe
Full table board ranges from 81 to IS a
week. The rates for separate meals are:
For breakfast. 20 and 25 cents; dinner.
80 to so cents: luncheon or supper. 20 to
80 cents.-New York Evening Post.
