Our dinner with Olivier and family in Paris may have been my most awkward, but there have been some other odd meals. Let’s see, there was an interesting turn of events last fall while attending a conference in Atlanta. Some of … Continue reading

Meet Me At Le Club
As some of you know, Dan and I really love to travel, particularly to Europe. For many years our preferred carrier was Air France. As always, my first priority is food, and Air France serves some really decent chow. Almost … Continue reading
