Wait... there's more! We went out to dinner tonight to what turned
out to be a very popular restaurant (le Charm). Reservations were for
7:00 and the place was packed when we got there, but we were seated
promptly. Dinner had hits and misses which I won't go into. In spite
of wall to wall customers, our meal spanned 2 hours.... I had to ASK
for the bill in spite of at least 10 people waiting for a seat at 9PM
(they were obviously short staffed tonight). Amazingly, noise wasn't
a factor... tables were very, very close, but the only conversations
we could hear were next to us and it wasn't loud.

BTW.... the reservation was made by my son AND he gave us $100 cash to
pay for it. The $$ put a good dent in the bill, but I decided to have
the recommended wines with each course so we added some extra.

This was the best Valentine's Day I've had in a loooong time!
