EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Wartime Feast: Simpsons Grand Divan Tavern, Strand, London - 1917" This evocative image showcases a wartime menu from Simpsons Grand Divan Tavern, located on the Strand in London during World War I. The year is 1917, and the world was embroiled in the first global conflict. The menu, adorned with intricate gold embellishments, displays an array of dishes that would have once graced the tables of this esteemed establishment. The top portion of the menu features an elegant illustration of the tavern's logo, with the words "Simpsons Grand Divan Tavern" written in bold, ornate script. Below the logo, a Ministry of Food Control Order is prominently displayed. This order underscores the necessity of rationing during wartime, with the heading "Ministry of Food Control Order No. 1127" and the date "1st October, 1917." The menu itself offers a fascinating glimpse into the culinary offerings of the era. Dishes such as "Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding," "Baked Ham and Pineapple," and "Boiled Pudding and Custard" are listed, along with their respective prices. The presence of the rationing order demonstrates the significant impact of the war on everyday life, even extending to the dining experiences of London's elite. The 1910s were a time of great change and hardship, as the world adjusted to the realities of total war. This menu serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of the British people during this period, as they continued to enjoy the simple pleasures of a well-prepared meal amidst the chaos of war.
