It is the the rule iu Astoria, whenever one of these people inquire for the best, all-round restaurant in the city, to promptly refer them to the Palace Catering Company, on Commercial street, just opposite the Page building. Once they patronize the Falnee, their worries and their questions are at an end. Banquetting and party service is complete in every detail of luxurious appliance and menu.
