The Zedel Brasserie is a beautifully decorated restaurant just behind Piccadilly Circus. We successfully negotiated the menu that was in French only with the help of Linda who speaks the language and then we enjoyed a very fine meal. The waiting staff were numerous and attentive although the young lady looking after us, and who took this photo of us, did struggle a little as at times we were addressed as madam and at other times as sir. To be honest I did not detect any malice I just think we were probably the first tgirls she had looked after and she was getting a little muddled.
Last summer we visited the royal palace in Madrid. On of the highlights of that visit was this beautiful decorated dining-room. Since you weren't allowed to get actually inside the room, none of the many visitors were in the shot.
Enjoy!

"Well I'll bet there's rich folks eatin' in some fancy dining car.
Probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars",.. or so sang Johnny Cash in his song "Folsom Prison Blues". I couldn't help but think of that line as well as the entire song while watching this scene unfold before me. Actually, hot chocolate was being served but I highly doubt any cigars were being smoked. Steam Railroading Institute's North Pole Express, led by the Pere Marquette 1225 approaches the North Pole (Ashley, Michigan) loaded with kids of all ages eager to see Santa.
The Pere Marquette 1225 served as the model for the steam engine in the movie "Polar Express".

I love Japanese food, especially vegetable tempura, Korokke (Japanese potato croquettes) and Agedashi Tofu. Not only is Japanese food delicious, it is also presented beautifully. What better way to eat such delicate and delicious food than with a pair of elegant chopsticks?
These antique Japanese chopsticks are made of Cloisonné. They are set against a background of a traditional depiction of the ocean printed and gilt on fine paper.
This year the FFF+ Group have decided to have a weekly challenge called “Snap Happy”. A different theme chosen by a member of the group each week, and the image is to be posted on the Monday of the week.
This week the theme, “pair” was chosen by Beverley, BlueberryAsh.
I thought this pair of elegant antique chopsticks was a suitable choice.
Cloisonné is an ancient technique for decorating metalwork objects. In recent centuries, vitreous enamel has been used, and inlays of cut gemstones, glass and other materials were also used during older periods. The resulting objects can also be called cloisonné. The decoration is formed by first adding compartments (cloisons in French) to the metal object by soldering or affixing silver or gold wires or thin strips placed on their edges. These remain visible in the finished piece, separating the different compartments of the enamel or inlays, which are often of several colours. Cloisonné enamel objects are worked on with enamel powder made into a paste, which then needs to be fired in a kiln.
The Japanese produced large quantities from the mid Nineteenth Century, of very high technical quality cloisonné. In Japan cloisonné enamels are known as shippō-yaki (七宝焼). Early centres of cloisonné were Nagoya during the Owari Domain. Companies of renown were the Ando Cloisonné Company. Later centres of renown were Edo and Kyoto. In Kyoto Namikawa became one of the leading companies of Japanese cloisonné.

The doves don't get a lot of respect! That's what happens when things become common: we value rarity. But I really like the blue eye liner and, even though they do frighten away some of the more skittish birds, for the most part they play well with others.
Best viewed large!

Seemingly a very contented meal. I loved the sound of the grass being chomped.
