Hmm - looking at this picture, I could believe they're bowls. Look at the
man taking them off the tray. I wouldn't trust a tart crust to survive that
kind of handling. And farther down the table, to the left, there are two
people (a man in a black hat and a woman in a white cap) who look to me to
be eating out of the bowls rather than eating a tart.
