HERITAGE
March 25th, 1930s. A Sunday walk at Liston. People with “European air” under the pretext of coffee and walk, meet at the Cafes to discuss politics and society. Authors and poets, journalists, politicians, famous painters, tradesmen, all blend and mingle creating a unique social mix.
THE OLD ARCADION
Large Venetian mirrors, neat glass doors, heavy furniture, national-patriotic lithographs, Kaiser paintings, billiards, decks, backgammon, mints, raki, rum, tea, beers, brandy, tsitsimbires. And, of course, coffee. The one and only of the era: the “Ibrik” in a copper kettle.
