Boula Gratinee or Boula Boula (1932, 1934, 1935)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

O.T.: Jesus, what a depressing week. Everything goes wrong and no one helps
you...I went to sleep with my girlfriend. We both woke up. She had a dream
that  I was cheating on her and she smacked me.
...
Back to food. Why are the "boula" books and articles all from New York  City?
Did it start at a hotel? Are the NYPL's menus digitized yet?
...
 I checked again for "boula" (green turtle and pea soup). It's called  "boula
gratinee" or "boula boula."

NEW YORK, Dec. 23. - A bit of a story here - a bit of a story there -  that's
New York.

There was a luncheon J. O. Voit gave for Raould Ricoult the other day at  the
Sherry-Netherland cafe-bar, and all during the luncheon the honor guest took
notes on a little memo pad by his plate.
...
When the boula (a comination green turtle and pea soup) was served he
scribbled a new sheet and thrust it into his pocket.

And next is soup - "Soup of the evening," as the mock turtle plaintively
sang it. Here one observes a distinct difference between American and English
taste, for while your Briton, if he hasn't his three-and-six to invest in a bowl
 of green turtle, must plunge his spoon into something that is of the
consistency  of mashed potatoes, the average American diner-out prefers those that
are light,  and which will not fill space solidly when taken aboard.
...
One exception is a wide preference for pea soup, masquerading as "Cream St.
Germain," or something else French and fancy. Here there is always a demand
for  the standard varieties, such as green turtle, chicken gumbo, consomme, and
chicken broth. Consomme, in some restaurants, with the addition of a few
chunks  of bread or toast and a few shavings of vegetables, has been known to
appear as  "croute-au-pot" and "petite marmite."

_
(http://listserv.linguistlist.org/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0107E&L=ADS-L&P=R2966&I=-3) I had missed it because it was under New York "State"  restaurants instead
of "NYC." Also, it was under restaurant "guidebooks."
It  antedates "egg roll." It antedates "Beef a la Lindstrom." It's got a nice
 "boula." "Swedish meatballs" and "side car"  also come close to the first
cites.
Take a look, but eat first.

Drive)
After  the caviar comes _boula_, a deliciously  prepared soup made from such
singularly incongruous ingredients as turtle and  pea soups and sherry, topped
off with a spoonful of whipped cream and then baked  in the oven.

(Pg. 219--ed.)
For dining at the King's Terrace did, and  still does, consist of a veritable
parade of palatable delicacies such as  _boula gratinee_ (pea soup helped
along with  green turtle and sherry), lobster _cardinal_, and Virginia Ham
_Eugenie_.
