DZGirl,
Thanks to you also for the kind words. Someday I hope I will be able to call myself a gourmet, but if I'm not careful I'm liable to turn into a gourmand!
Dad and I were supposed to be in the UK this week to determine if it would be practical for me to begin taking over his practice in the EU over the next couple of years. That has been pushed back for a few days but when we get there we are planning to have dinner at Rule's on Maiden Lane. That is one of my favorite restaurants and I am looking forward to Irish Rock Oysters on the half shell, smoked breast of phesant with pear chutney, medallions of vennison in a port wine glaze over braised root veg, and a steamed pudding with double cream. Afterwards we go to the Crusting Pipe in Covent Garden and have aged stilton with vintage port and then back to Dad's club for black coffee, cognac, and a good cigar. I prefer Hoyo de Monterays and he likes Bolivars. This is always a high point of a trip to London when Dad is there.
