Americans in Paris Expose High Paris Prices
The piece satirizes two American visitors in Paris who flaunt wealth at the Champs Elys Es hotels and theatres. They complain about costs such as champagne at seventy francs a bottle and caviar at fifteen francs per teaspoon, while ignoring local prices and etiquette. The author notes their belief Paris is the ultimate glamorous city, yet they misread the local life and pay premium prices. Scattered anecdotes cover dressmakers, theatre seating, and restaurant bills, ending with the Americans returning to New York convinced Paris is the most expensive city on earth.
