Fifties Teenage Dance Party Menu
Recipes from the Norwegian cook book “Snarmat for hverdag og fest” (Fast food for everydays and parties) published in 1956.
“Snarmat for hverdag og fest” is a cook book that both feature recipes like other cook books and ready made menus like the one pictured here all with a delightful fifties flavour both in dishes and images. The small book feature 8 such menus and the rest will follow later on.
In context:
I grew up with teak sandwich platters like the ones on the picture. We used them for breakfast every day, and I still got them and still use them. We even had teak knives for buttering the sandwiches and I still got those too and use them 🙂
