Stork Club Owner Say Men Prefer Simple Food New York (U.R) You can aban dan your struggles with the spe cialty cook books, if it's a man's heart you're after. Men still prefer simple and solid dishes like beef stew and corned beef and cabbage, ac cording to Sherman Billingsley and his chef, Gabriel Beaumont. Billingsley, owner of the Stork Club, hit on a successful formula for keeping everybody satisfied He feeds the men beef stew and hands out perfume to the ladies. He figures he gives away more than 100 gallons of his perfume, Sortilege, every year. And the chef has lost track of the number of onions that go into a year's beef stew supply. "The hardest thing I ever had to do was to get my French chef t" add beef stew and corned beef and cabbage to the menu," Bil lingsley said. Beaumont is an artistic Frenchman who prefers the word "create" to the word "cook." Beaumont did manage to add a slightly continental touch to the beef stew. He used' a recipe which he said came from the French province of Burgundy. But he stuck to the simple Amer ican method of preparing corned beef and cabbage. On request, Beaumont careful ly wrote out both his recipes in French, then took a French-English dictionary and translated them. 1 New Plastic Upholstery Recently Put On Market New York (U.R) Plastic up holstery in a surprisingly real istic range of colors and patterns has just been put on the market.
