Pig'N Whistle

Posted by Dee's Postcards on

These old 1930's Pig'N Whistle advertising postcards seem to have a devoted following and they don't last too long in my shop. So for fun I just googled to see what was on the menu back then.  

'Menus were elaborate even though prices were moderate. In 1934 it was possible to order a “De Luxe” six-course dinner for $1.00 that included dishes such as “Braised Saddle of Rabbit, Chasseur” and “Grilled Boned Loin of Spring Lamb” with fresh mushrooms and mint jelly. The dinner came with additional courses and accompaniments such as seafood cocktail, soup, spaghetti, avocado salad, and asparagus Hollandaise. To finish, there were 23 desserts to select from.'   from Jan Whitaker, Restaurant-ing Through History website
