Definitions

  1. a list of dishes available at a restaurant

Word origin

Borrowed from French carte, from Latin charta. Doublet of card and chart.

Used in a sentence

  • "He only says she is Laura Somerset, and he sends me her carte; here it is." Now this was in the early days of cartes, and the soft ivory finish and delicate tinting of the cartes that now are taken, were unknown.
  • Celebrity cartes, and photographic portraits more generally, were valued in Victorian culture for their much-lauded ability to render the sitter as he or she really was.
  • We’ll take a dram for luck, and as soon as this handless man of mine has the collops ready, we’ll dine and take a hand at the cartes as gentlemen should.
