In a half an hour they were seated in an arbor by the lake, where a homely German restaurant offered good cheer. The Lady of the Lake did the honors ceremoniously, and Major Alan Hawke was permitted a cigar after the lake trout, filet, pears, cheese, Chambertin, and black coffee had been discussed.
The tables set for them were abundantly and even magnificently served; which, however; did not prevent a whole basket of Chambertin being requested each day for the Pope's private table, though he dined alone and drank only water.

I am ashamed to look you in the face, Captain Baumgarten. We must improve upon this." He blew a call upon a whistle which hung from his shooting-jacket. The old manservant was in the room in an instant. "Chambertin from bin 15!" he cried, and a minute later a grey bottle, streaked with cobwebs, was carried in as a nurse bears an infant. The count filled two glasses to the brim. "Drink!" said he.
I transferred my attention, therefore, to the breakfast, which, to my no small satisfaction, was now smoking on the table, and to which we at once sat down. The strangers appeared grave and thoughtful, and ate little, although the steaks were delicious, the young quails incomparable, and the Chambertin worthy of an imperial table.

Maples to send up now, here, a tray, whatever she has, within five minutes not later. A bottle of the Peace of Amiens Chambertin Mr. Eglett's. You understand. Mrs. Maples will pack a basket for the journey; she will judge. Add a bottle of the Waterloo Bordeaux. Wait: a dozen of Mr. Eglett's cigars. Brisk with all the orders. Go. She turned to Weyburn.

They were two sharp fellows, and had understood Buvat's character at a glance, and not understanding a man not being hungry when before a pheasant stuffed with truffles, or not thirsty before a bottle of Chambertin, had penetrated the prisoner's fears pretty quickly.
"Bring them quick, then; I am fainting with hunger." She soon laid the table for two, and put on it all the food she had. The cheese was Roquefort, and the ham had been covered with jelly. My sweetheart's eyes gleamed with pleasure: truly Chambertin and Roquefort are excellent thinks to restore an old love and to ripen a young one.
