Lacroix Redux 


In honor of our anniversary, we went again...and this is what I ate. 

Favorites are in italics, and, while I am a glutton, serving sizes were small.

Oh, and a mimosa, glasses of 2004 Graff Riesling Kabinett and 2001 Michel Lynch Bordeaux. And coffee and water.

Really, do I have to say anything more? This is truly a wonderful place that everyone should have the chance to visit.

And now, I have to go to bed and dream of the next time we can justify us spending $160 on brunch.
