I’m overjoyed for your fortune and jealous I wasn’t there. One day I will. It’s on my list too!

Oh, MAN, I am so jealous! Back when my husband and I were in our “traveling and spending money as if P. Diddy were our financial advisor” phase of life, one of the few decadent things we never got around to doing was eating at French Laundry. I always wished we were able to do that…and now I do even more after seeing those fantastic pictures!

Yeah, but have you ever put a donut in the microwave? Pretty amazing.

Mon dieu! This is SO Louis XIV Versailles. But, you know, without the laundry.

Hi there.

Loved your article, I had a similar experience with my wife in April. The best part was the service. There was no hint of stuffiness. They completely understood that we are not all rock-stars, and this is a once in a lifetime experience, and they honor that.

I remember being put off by “normal” food for about a week after that. It just didn’t seem worth eating.

a friend of ours gave us a generous gift certificate to the french laundry for our engagement and we still managed to have to fork out a little less than double its value for our dinner there.

it was definitely a once in a lifetime experience and for months i went through alternating feelings of glee (OMG! that was the most fantasticamazingglorious dining experience of my life!) and guilt (i can’t beleive we spent that much money on a dinner for 2! oh woe!). still, i’m really really glad i did it. but we didn’t get to see Pink while we were there. damn.
