Considering that this was not an exceptional dinner, but was a sample
of the fare that was served every day one is inclined to envy Guzzle and
to deplore the neglected opportunities of the Rev. Jones.
Below the Fifth Avenue Mine Host flourished yesterday. At the corner of
Eighteenth Street there was the Logerot, sometime called Fleuret's.
There, as at the old Martin's, at University Place and Ninth Street, a
little play of the imagination enabled the diner to hug the delusion
that he was at Foyot's, and that the gentleman with the white goatee at
the table opposite was a Senator of France from the near-by Palace of
the Luxembourg. After he had eaten of the _moules marinieres_ and the
_escargots_ it was no longer imagination, he felt sure of the fact. To
stimulate through the palate such pleasant fancy was the idea of Richard
de Croisac, Marquis de Logerot, who opened the place in 1892. When
Logerot's passed the setting was made to serve a purpose ignominious,
though highly laudable. It became an incubator shop, and tiny coloured
babies squirmed mysteriously where once the _casserole_ steamed.
