In India l have dined
with Maharajas, and
have had repasts
with Chinese gen
erals somewhere in
China | learned to
love Indian food
which in its most
characteristic form is
chicken curry. There
is poetry in it, and an
amazing variety that
results from the use
of numerous differ
ent spices. many OF
them unknown out
side of India. At the
table of the Mahay
raja who rules over
the Sikhs in India,
the currled chicken
came in on a huge
gold platter, and with
it came fifty little
gold bowls, each con-
tanning a spice. They
warned me to be
careful and told me
how tOllSe the SPICES.

Theresult, ,whenyou use themskillfully,
is a perfection impossible to describe.
Chinese cooking is, of course. a
great fine art. And in China l have
had dinners with as many as fifty-two
courses. 1t sounds incredible. You
would think nobody could eat as much
as that But actually you eat hardly
more than bite of each thing, the
idea being not to cloy the palate with
any one taste or consistency. Then,
too, these meals take hours to con-
sumo. They end with an odd ceremony
very odd in western eyes. A bowl
of rice is set before you to signify that
the feast is over; and it is important
for strangers to know the etiquette.
for you are not supposed to eat this
rice. 1t is just symbol"
If you study the eating habits Of
a country you will learn great
deal about that nations mental and
temperamental habits, - or so MIR.
Dekobra thinks. For instance, in many
ways he does not find the United
States so different from France as one
might suppose. But the difference that
does exist shows up, he thinks, in the
fact that an American can fall in love
at sight and also can actually enjoy a
quick lunch" whereas Frenchman
needs three hours if he is going to
"enjoy" meal and three months to
make up his mind about love affair.
Eoeh Hos It's Specially
JUsr as in America, each district of
France has its own food speciality.
Mr.. Dekobra says. Peace-time visitors
to Tourraine, in the heart of the Loire
valley, find pate de foie gras at its
finest. Truffles come from this district
also. In Provence, everything is fla
vored with garlic. That is where you
find tomatoes, sliced and favored with
butter and parsley and garlic and then
baked. From Burgundy come the fa-
nous snails that the French like so
much. They come from the vineyards
and feed on the grapes.
The best butter in France comes from
Normandy whose beautiful meadows
furnish fine pasture land. On the Swiss
border, north of Geneva. you will find
the original cheese fondu: bowl of
melted Swiss cheese set in the middle
