Table Talk at Bit of Sweden Brings Laughing Shopper Wonder
A tale from Bit of Sweden at 2131 Broadway recounts a diner's awe at the all you can eat setup. He first overfills a plate and pays $1.85, then returns half an hour later for more, baffled that meat and dessert are included. Helmer Aberg tries to explain the bargain. The man exits, returns, and marvels at the value again. Nearby ads promote Luigi's and Lamb's Inn, with menus and prices, plus notes on local clubs and eateries.
