recipes of American and French dishes
and when Old Checco realiz. = that a
homesiCk foreigner needs to have his
appetite stimulated he suggests national
dishes in fluent French or not very
broken English. But the Concordia has
so many specialties that they cannot he
all described.
First comes the pastry, small cakes.
all made in the house, each a work of
art as the Concorda cook has a light
hand and a delcacy of touch that rem
der his work artistic. The cakes are
of all sorts and conditions with different
frostng and decoration and different
names. The llghtest and perhaps the
best are known as "sospiri" ,slghs) and
they are filed with whipped cream and
covered with a thin coating of chocolate.
old Checco makes a specially also of
marrons glaces, fruit salads and even a
liqueur. MS famous mandarin cordial
likewise made on the premises.
The habtues of the Concorda as a
rule do not order their meals. but leave
the choice to Old Chcccu. Even If they
want To order, generally Chccco sug-
gests some astronomical treat. or
brings II i'm to show and Of course the
guest changes his mind at s,eht of It
and says he VIII take that. Rice with
mushrooms. grilled chickens with devil

gestcd by old Checco. or perhaps

The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-08-16

Checco replies that instead of two por-
Tons of spaghetti he only ordered one
and that two portions of fish mayon-
nase did for three and adds 10y way of
apology: You said you were not hum

Unfortunately foreign tourists COM
plain that in many Roman restaurants
they are cheated and that walters often
make mistakes in adding up bills. old
Checco or his bro;ter. Pacific. are the
only two who al | up bills in the Con-
curd.a, and both are accurate mathe-
maticians. FOreiSners are treated like
natives and old Chccco boasts that he
never overCharged foreigner or. to use
his expression. never made him pay
through the nose
THAT is why they come back" he
adds.
But then Of course old checco has n
conscience and he is not rObber"
and to prove this he pulls out of "A
drawer the letters and cards and tele-
grams sent to him by friends abroad
ana they are all from well known peo-
Pile who remember the Concordia and

Another unusual request came from
n woman who wanted To- insure herself
against the risk of. having twins. This
would almost appear I" have been n
conspiracy as she collected $4,000 on
her policy upon the arrival of two
daughters. The premium amounted to
$3.50 monthly for a period of half a
year.
The very latest loss to be recognized
