Tonight's story begin with a gracious welcome by Israel Perez, Maitre d'Hotel.......
.....and his charming and elegant staff
I had many mini-missions for this meal (in no particular order)
The reporting pace will probably be as leisurely as the meal - partially due to time constraints, partially to make the reliving last longer....

.....and his charming and elegant staff
I had many mini-missions for this meal (in no particular order)
- re-introduce DH to the wonders of V&A (his last visit = 1997)
- experiment with my Canon D10, to see if I could migrate from the SLR
- simply enjoy, as DH put it, "the best meal of my life" - and that was two days after Palo's (Wonder - DVC member cruise)
- listen to the harp music
- relax in the hushed tones of V&A
- enjoy the many nuances of the fine wine pairing
