Note #3
"Beer-salons, tea-rooms, and eating-houses are frequented by the lower classes only." (xxvii)
So if you care to dine and stay classy, mind that you stick to - eh hem - proper restaurants.
Bonus note
Travellers should note that, in Russia, a delicatessen - гастроном - is a wonderful thing. Not only can you purchase cheese and sausage: you can often sit down to a perfectly good lunch in the attached restaurant. Lunch can be had for a song, and you will find yourself in perfectly respectable company. (xxvii)
