The enforced culling of animals from the Jardin des Plantes, together with the other exigencies of the situation, has by this time lead to some unusual dishes, although accompanied by some very fine vintages.

We may consider ourselves fortunate that César Ritz, a waiter at the Voisin at the time, did not attempt to bring these dishes to London later.
