Marshall Tito Ate Here!

We went off campus tonight for dinner to the same, local, excellent restaurant that Peggy and I really enjoyed 2 years ago.  The estate has been around since the 16th century,  known for their horses and great food... don't confuse the two.  Marshall Tito was known to dine here in the last half of the 20th century.. and now we've returned for our second visit.  And glad we did! We started outside for a glass of sparkling wine,  and then moved inside for a gastronomic treat.  Not very expensive,  but very creative... as you'll see!
Lovely aperitif setting...

Fantastic egg filled with bacon,  plus foie gras pate,  etc... 

Peggy's amazing rabbit stew with tortellini...yum!

Jon's... no thanks... octopus, squid ink and cuttlefish...

Marinated (raw) veal .. actually amazing! 

My crawfish with roasted cauliflower... to die for! 

Peggy and Jon enjoyed the local fish...
Ann's filet with blintz.. gotta love 'em!

Hot molten chocolate egg filled with strawberries! 

Combination dessert with ice cream,  raspberry foam etc....

Creme brulee with chocolate figs!

Alas,  packing and last room views... Good departure timing as Mont Blanc is overcast!  Views still spectacular even with clouds... You all know this feeling.. ciao bella!  Always time for one more gelato! Grom Rules!  And as we finish the 24 hours of travel logistics,  which many of you are overly familiar with..arriving safely home at 10:30 pm, we were treated with a spectacular view ... Great bridges of San Francisco!

492 Reaches Great Heights!

With almost perfect weather,  we knew today would be special with a gondola ride up to Mont Blanc.  49 euros per person ain't nothin as they say, but on the anniversary... nuf said! More oxygen please!  There were 2 stopping points,  a champagne production facility,  playgrounds,  herb gardens, hammocks,  giant telescopes, great restaurants and of course,  killer views. Mont Blanc Why Not!  Everybody's taking photos for everybody!  Nick Colonna's next climb? (There were people at the top)  Toast to a great start of 492! When we returned to our country estate,  it was time to relax! Great foot of the mountain location!  Lovely indoor/outdoor pool with mountain views!  I think she's relaxing!  Not sure everyone here enjoys the beautiful sunshine? What would your caption be?
