[Sca-cooks] Dutch Dinner by Peter G. Rose

[Jadwiga Zajaczkowa / Jenne Heise]

> >The menu is based on authentic 17th century Dutch recipes. It will
> >feature a mushroom appetizer; a main course with chicken prepared with a
> >spicy fruit sauce accompanied with Savoy cabbage and a green salad
> >garnished with calendula flowers; and dessert of apple custard, a ginger
> >cake, quince preserve, and a raspberry brandy. 
> Interesting,  $35 for one course, eight dishes including the sauce 
> and desserts, and only one meat dish.   We would expect more from a 
> $5 feast.

But we would pay about that for a meal in a good restaurant or per 
cover at a high-class mundane event. They must be really penny-pinching 
to pay the staff and still be making a reasonable fundraiser for the 
museum!
