A printed menu from The Dilettanti Society, 1891. Drawn from the gilded years of Belle Époque Europe, when Paris, London and the Riviera defined international luxury dining.
The Belle Époque (1890–1914) was the great trans-European boom of luxury dining. The Savoy and Carlton in London, the Ritz and Élysée Palace in Paris, and the grand hotels of Monte Carlo, Nice and the Riviera all issued elaborately illustrated menus that today survive as some of the finest printed ephemera of the period.
