Dinner in the private cellar room for nine of us tonight. Stan and Karen came down from Santa Monica to join us. Along with John Cathy, CJ, Terry and Cindy. Margie who planned the event and Paul, her husband rounded out the table. A good time was had by all. A lot of laughter tonight so we know the enjoyment that brings out.
Margie's instructions were to bring "fine" wines from our cellar and we did. I was slightly disappointed in the Cabernet that I brought. It was not showing well but the next day it was completely different. Probably needed a few more years.
I ordered the petite fillet Mignon which was cooked to perfection. Everyone seemed to enjoy their selections. It is hard to miss with aged prime Angus beef and a restaurant that knows how to cook it.I took leftovers home and it made a great steak sandwich the next day
Looking forward to our next dinner at 555 in the late fall.
