he Ambassador carriage is furnished as a dining room and
offers tables and easy chairs for 36 persons. The interior is
held in dark cherry wood, and an original curtain from the

dainty cup of coffee and some petits fours in the ladies' salon.
Today, ladies and gentlemen all join together at the bar after an
opulent meal for a few dance steps and perhaps a
digestif
