In a fashionable restaurant decorated with plants and a chandelier, three men, one in a military frock coat, sitting at a table with a punch bowl and glasses, express surprise as the waiter hands them the bill for their lunch which included beefsteak, various liquors, ice cream and bread. A pretty hostess stands behind the counter on the left writing out another bill. Below the image is the caption" Goddam! Quinze cent francs pour un déjeuner!!!!
