I found mention of a restaurant in two books- it may be the same one.

The first mention is from ‘Edith Wharton and Mary Roberts Rinehart at the Western Front 1915.’ 
 

I enclose extract from February 1915- which mentions a restaurant “In de Hemel” ran by a female proprietress.

 

The second extract is from Norman Ellison’s ‘Remembrances of Hell’ he visited this restaurant on the Rue de Lille in April 1915- this time with two female owners.

 

Any help with the name(s) of the restaurant appreciated.
