"So, I have adapted, and will eat carry-out at home, when there are no longer restaurants I can enjoy."

Surely there is a restaurant you would do anything to visit. I have one.

It's on Figueroa Street in L.A. Real Spanish cuisine. Like Botine's in Madrid. Reservations are 2 months in advance. They have steamed Paella with real saffron rice and little scallops, crabs and clams mixed in. Mmmm. BBQ'd Ribs and chicken. Lobster tails bigger than a cat. And shrimp bigger than a you-know-what:) And calamares. And Sangria with fruit floating around in the pitcher. And fresh Spanish bread and butter. Oh, and steamed cafe with Anis liquor.

Are you hungry yet?

Dress nicely and bring $$ and an empty stomache if you can wait that long:):)

Nope. I don't frquent restaurants like that. Around here, the fanciest place is probably Bonefish Grill. Downtown has some fancy restaurants like Oceanaire and Palomino's, but we rarely go out to places like that.
