We sat at the Kitchen Table, which is a table in a nook in
the kitchen (the rest of the 400 guests sat downstairs in the dining
area). We got a chance to see all the dishes as they walked past us,
and we had a lot of fun talking to the chef, cooks, and wait staff.
Our waiter, Jerry, we had a surreal experience with. Here he is
(click picture for a larger image):
He's
a British chap, high energy (as you can see!). He took our appetizer
order, and as we waited & ate, we made up our minds what we wanted to
order. When he came, we thought he would take our order, but the
first thing he did was put the first dish we wanted on the table. He
came back shortly with 2 more dishes we ordered (actually, the second was
Chicken Marsala in stead of Veal). He was about to get the fourth,
then we stopped him and said we hadn't ordered yet. You should have
seen the look on his face! After checking all the other restaurant
orders, there were none even close to what we wanted, so we didn't get
anyone else's.
He
took this lovely picture of our table; you can tell we had fun!
Here are some more pics for your perusal:
