Mock Turtle Soup
A tea cup and saucer is brought to the table, each cup contains a gold pocket watch, a la "Mad Hatter Tea"....The March Hare took the watch and looked at it gloomily; then he dipped it into his cup of tea..." The waiter poured hot water into the cups and the watch disappeared leaving behind a pale broth with gold leaf floating. Next we are given a plate with a tiny egg which is somehow impregnated with the tinest mushrooms I have ever seen. To the side is a little slice of layered bacon. We are told to pour our broth over the egg - this then becomes our Mock Turtle Soup.
