Eaten on this day in 1851 at Niblo’s Saloon. I think my favorite dishes are the Chicken Sallad and the Beef Tongues, both served in “gelee”; the Pigeons and the Widgeons; and (no party is a party without) Charlotte Russe. I don’t know which would have been my favorite ornamental piece; probably the Fruits of Industry.
