In the Restaurant
Society in four courses

Christoph Ribbat

This history of modern restaurants takes a glimpse into their dining rooms as well as behind the scenes with anecdotes from and about guests, cooks and waiters. Restaurants provide not only food and enjoyment, but also serve as meeting places. In this way they hold a mirror up to society.
