Chaine des Rotisseurs Dinner – Dale Miller
Last night I attended (or kind of crashed) a lovely party. Dale Miller Restaurant hosted an induction ceremony and dinner for The Chaine des Rotisseurs and I can't imagine a more perfect evening for such a wonderful event. The sun was shining, and there was a delightful bigger-than-a-breeze-but-not-quite-a-wind making the terrace an ideal spot to … Continue reading Chaine des Rotisseurs Dinner – Dale Miller
Neil Young ~ Palace Theater 5/18/10

Sorry if I'm projecting, but I definitely have a food hangover today - and I wish had like 3 more hours of sleep. … Continue reading Mother’s Day ~ Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
Emperor’s Palace
At our house one of the birthday traditions is that the honoree gets to choose dinner and their cake. I will devote this post to the dinner - the cake was a bit complicated and will require an additional post. This year (and last year, if I remember correctly) Griffin requested Chinese food on his … Continue reading Emperor’s Palace
