Good for Mr. 'A' for standing next to these huge arichokes to really show how they look like.<br />It is always so special to have such a tour at a Michelin Star(s) restaurant. I did so at the Cloister here in Georgia at Sea Island where the former Clinton Chef led us around. Also my best friend's daughter in The Netherlands did give us a tour at the Michelin Star restaurant where she's the vinologue and hostess... So I fully understand you.<br /><br />Sunny greetings from Georgia and thanks for sharing this!<br /><br />MariettesBacktoBasicsMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.com
