A menu printed on silk for a banquet given in honor of Albert Edward Prince of Wales later to be crowned King Edward VII called 'the event of the age' by the <i>Commercial Advertiser</i>. Held at New York's Academy of Music this ball required Lorenzo Delmonico to display all his culinary talents. Lorenzo Delmonico did not disappoint.

On the buffet tables the magnificently presented dishes with their elegant-sounding French names were presented by Lorenzo Delmonico the owner of Manhattan's best restaurant."
