One of the best meals I ever had was in the Fells Point section of Baltimore. It was a recently opened French restaurant. A friend and I went and ended up ordering off the specials of the day rather than the menu.
I recall it being over $100 each. But what a meal. I have found some beautiful places throughout Califormia when working there - Lemoore, San Luis Obispo, and some exclusive places in the center. On the other hand, I had the best burrito outside of a club in El Paso, Texas from the trunk and backseat of a lady's Chevrolet Impala. Being the designated driver I just told my friends to shut up and enjoy the food... :-) Cesar Panama City, Florida -----Original Message----- From: Paul Stenquist [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 6:46 AM You're right about the prices. But it's not the kind of place you visit on a regular basis. It's a rare treat. I'm a lifelong cook and my wife was a professional pastry chef. If you're really fascinated by food, an extravagant meal can be as much a treat as a new lens. And it costs almost as much.
