Hello all! I'd like to ask for a little help, I'm writing a fantasy novel, and I wanted to include a restaurant scene, however, I do not know when restaurants first developed, particularly menus, I know that ancient China had them, but I was more wondering about restaurants in the 19th century. More specifically, around the period of eighteen hundred (18) to eighteen thirty six (1836), as that is where most of the technology of my novel will draw inspiration. Thank you to all who help, I sincerely appreciate it!
