His answer: "Everybody keeps asking me that! I just called, and they answered."<br />Cranky and I called every day, first thing in the morning, for a couple of months, but it was years ago.

Too much. But a memorable ballet of servers and clever plating that I enjoyed very much.

Yeah, it's sorta obvious where we ate. :) The man who treated us got through on the phone, easy-peasy, so maybe they're not as crowded now as in the past.<br />As for skipping food before you go, I'm afraid I'd fall into some digestive meltdown and not be able to eat at all. We're all different.<br />I haven't been to Commision. Must check it out. xxcookiecrumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741894180391507513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12774302.post-2665181217499880152013-06-15T17:50:01.184-07:002013-06-15T17:50:01.184-07:00Knee the answer when you said Yountville and nine ...Knee the answer when you said Yountville and nine course tasting menu. I was just whining to my dad the other night that whenever he had been there, he has failed to invite me. Oh and when I went to Commission a couple of years ago, I just didn't eat all day. Only way to get through the menu. Kailynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00929638120561092330noreply@blogger.com
