    After we finished dinner yesterday, Andrea half-jokingly challenged me to find dinner for tonight. I’m not one to back down in finding a favorable dinner reservation, so challenge accepted! I booked us for Gary Danko, a place we haven’t eaten in 15-20 years and we were curious to see wat they were like. Back on…

We had to have much of their infused vodka (we went with the horseradish vodka) and of course caviar. We tried…

    Tonight’s dinner was at Le Fantastique, a new restaurant that opened up a few months ago, with French and Japanese influences. They boast a McIntosh audio system and a turntable to play vinyl which of course interested me. We had an early reservation (which we always prefer) and we were in fact the first diners…
