We should eat like that more often.

I think I need to reduce the frequency of acceptable dinners at restaurants, currently at about once per fortnight, and save up for really good food like the dinner we had tonight.

There were five of us and the bill was paid by an old friend of my mother's. We heard how much the bill was, and were very impressed.

It was worth it.

Even the butter served with the bread was better than normal butter.

But I might have drunk too much wine.

And Ms Not-a-Goth is a star - she looked after 13 month old Rose AND her 5 month old, demanding cousin. At the same time. We paid her well.

The couple of times when I've spent substantially more than I'm used to at a restaurant I've left thinking something along the lines of "Ok, so *that's* why people spend that much at good restaurants." Really, exceptionally good food is a truly wonderful thing.
