At noon, I had lunch in a famous restaurant in the center of Vorannes, called The Gallery. It had been opened within the last month, but all the nobility was jostling for the opportunity to eat there. I had no difficulty in getting a place, since it was Marie Anastasie who had reserved for me. So, I let you imagine if the waiter had refused to take the reservation of the Princess of Duaples. He would probably have been fired. Beforehand, I had warned her that, if it wasn't possible to get a table, I would have gone to eat somewhere else. However, Marie had insisted and, stubborn as she was, I couldn't get her to listen to reason.
