Lucky you! How did you access the basement Smudger?I`ve been in that basement many times, 40`s/early 50`s. Mom worked there making the fancy cakes. Can`t understand why i was always so skinny.

Wish i could remember, i must have been very young at the time.. All i can remember is several ladies making yummy cakes. I also think i remember a young lady in full waitress gear saying something like " welcome to Satis " which i don`t understand?

'Satis' means enough. Latin as in satisfaction. You will have plenty to eat here.

Nor mine Richard! I wonder if the menu was written in French? Someone wanted to create an upmarket clientele. In Gails the prices are high, but it is more 'Can I get a coffee?'
