A cook turns pieces of poultry in a large frying pan as steam rises and colleagues work on in the background. The shot belongs to a series of everyday scenes from Berlin in the early 1930s that, alongside poverty and soup kitchens, also show the capital's more affluent gastronomy. Large kitchens like this supplied restaurants, hotels and nightclubs that kept operating despite the Great Depression. The contrast with the charity meals shown elsewhere in the reel highlights the social divides of the Weimar Republic.
