50 oere and the lunch
2 kr. 50 oere. Caloric punch is a favourite drink here, as elsewhere in
Sweden, and two men think nothing of drinking a bottle between them
after dinner or supper.
The Cafe du Nord is very crowded and very popular, although more
bourgeois than the others. The food is good, meals being served mostly
_a la carte_. A good _filet de boeuf_ costs about 90 oere. The business
men who mostly patronise this cafe dine from 3 to 4 P.M. Many people
sup there in the evening. There are some excellently painted pictures in
black and gold, rather daring and French in subject, on the walls.
There are also the Cafe Anglais (fairly good) and the Hamburger Boers.
The Berns' Salonger, the Blanch Cafe and Stroemparterren are cafes where
coffee, punch, liqueurs, and sandwiches may be had. The former is the
only one open in summer and winter, the two latter being opened on 1st
May without regard to the temperature, and closed on 30th September.
