EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the iconic Fortes "Puritan Maid" installation at Piccadilly Circus in London. The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection. The Puritan Maid was a stunning cafeteria that could serve up to 600 people per hour. It was renowned for its efficient use of modern materials and clever layout and equipment arrangements within a limited service area. This installation set a new standard in cafeteria service design and organization, with meticulous attention to detail. The photograph originally appeared as an illustration in the book "Progressive Catering: A Comprehensive Treatment of Food, Cookery, Drink, Catering Services and Management" by J. J Morel around 1952. It showcases the historical significance of this innovative catering concept during the mid-20th century. The Puritan Maid at Piccadilly Circus remains an important milestone in food history and represents the evolution of catered dining experiences.
