No New Year Hangovers
(London Correspondent of “The Press”) LONDON, Jan. 2. The owner of one Mayfair club, “The Paar of Shoes.” came up with one really new New Year’s resolution: to provide the answer to “hangovers.” From midnight to midday the club served a champagne breakfast. The owner, Mr Eric Steiner, Rays it was designed as a “hangover breakfast.” Guests arrived as they completed their ritual celebrations. As well as conventional British breakfast dishes, there were caviar, foie gras, oysters and lobsters—all delicacies chosen by the French chef for their remedial qualities. Caviar, insisted the chef, was an excellent hangover cure.
The barman was armed with a repertoire of 102 “revivers” and “galvanisers,” and sure enough, there was a run on strong black coffee.
But. said Mr Steiner: “It Isn't drink that gives you a hangover—it’s sleep! if you don't go to sleep, you can't wake up with a hangover . .”
