This little water dragon joins the snows leopards everyday when they have their dinner.....he/she is one very brave dragon.
The snows don't seem to mind and the water dragon seems to know it's place, even it it does try and sneak a cheeky piece of meat before the snow has finished.
The craft of the Chef is a tiring job that gives moments of dream and extreme sensory and aesthetic pleasure to people. What's behind the evanescent scenes and the classic glossy food photos of dishes on “Michelin” restaurants tables, however, is often not enough known by insiders nor even by the clients of a restaurant in terms of craftsmanship and know-how.
Fascinated from mastery of these taste explorers and from their ability to compose dishes obtained after a long and hard research, I entered in their kitchens on tiptoe. The appearance of the realization of the dishes adds a component of perceptual enjoyment of the creativity of the Chef and allows the viewer to "interact" with the photographs in terms of empathy with the process of implementation of the dishes, as it has been for me that, discreetly, approached the reportage project.

And where and how shall a handsome young man and his very lovely young lady celebrate the miracle of their youth? ☺️ Perhaps tickets to the Billie Eilish concert playing across the street at T-Mobile Arena would be most appropriate. What do you think? 🤔
Only once, or maybe twice, in three decades have you personally witnessed your very lovely lady thoroughly enjoy any kind of steak greater than a three ounce Filet Mignon(m). You on the other hand have never found favor with any steak less than 14 ounces. Does it bother you that the Fabulous Las Vegas Strip is the only place in the Whole World where you can easily indulge your hunger for Big Beef and Kentucky Bourbon without guilt? ☺️
But what happens after dinner? 🤔
In accordance with your quest to achieve ‘Island Time’ you have no plans for tonight. If you are not inspired to purchase a VIP seat for an NHL game tonight — then would you consider making a visit later on to the Sapphire Gentlemen’s Club? 😈 Or perhaps it’s not too late to whip out you trusty Apple iPod and book a seat on the first available Party Bus? 😈 Or you could find an inviting Craps Table here at the Flamingo Hotel & Casino where you could test the strength of your Field and Pass Line betting strategies? 🎲🎲
Or perhaps you should just focus on enjoying your dinner and let Fate guide your evening’s itinerary! 😏
I,m not sure that this is what was meant by "black tie" on the invitation,darling?
Besides we'll be late for dinner!
You and your very lovely lady first visited the newly opened Paris Hotel & Casino during the late Fall of 1999. You two enjoyed dinner out on the open-air patio at Mon Ami Gabi long before it became fashionable to do so. Autumn nights in Las Vegas can be either warm and balmy or cool and balmy and so you both had your leather sports jackets handy. You and your very lovely lady sat along the patio rail overlooking the Fabulous Las Vegas Strip and the romantic Lake Bellagio across the street. People walked by on the Strip but did not stop to stare at the diners on the patio. There were no lines to dine out on the patio as most diners were content to dine in the warmth of the large cozy French dining room. Back in 1999, it was reasonably possible to get a patio table even during the dinner rush. Now during this July 2020 Coronavirus Recession, it seems remarkable that a man and a woman can once again manage to find a prime time patio table available at Mon Ami Gabi, even with the exercise of Social Distanced dinner tables — Amazing!! 😷😃

was invited to the boy's parents for a Christmas eve dinner/get together so I broke these puppies out with black hose, little black asymmetrical dress and burgundy lace cardigan. not too formal but not too casual either. not sure what his family thought about my booties being untied all night though but we all had a good dinner and a nice time.
Mrs. and I had a very romantic dinner date,
a tailgate, Five Guys, an empty parking lot and each others company 💕
So what If you are the only man in the restaurant dressed ‘Business Casual’ wearing a dress shirt and a necktie! Life is too short to dress down rather than dress up! Order a double Bourbon on the Rocks and enjoy your dinner. You’ll want the Bone-In 14 oz New York Strip(m)! You need to keep your mask on until after you’ve ordered and your cocktail and food have been served. 😷😉

Your original intent last April 2020 was to invite your very lovely lady to join you on the Fabulous Las Vegas Strip to celebrate your Aries birthday. You had booked a high Strip-View Suite in the Empire Resort Tower of the New York-New York Hotel & Casino. You had scheduled a Bell Trans stretch limousine pick-up at McCarran International Airport. You had arranged for a VIP Champagne Reception for two to be served in the NY-NY VIP Lobby Lounge! You had booked a pair of extra legroom seats on Frontier Airlines -- Coming and Going! More importantly, you had booked a pair of close up lodge seats to attend 'Absinthe' by Spiegel World at Caesars Palace! You had made reservations for two for dinner at Cafe Americano at Caesars Palace! And after the show, you were going to take your very lovely lady to visit the Vanderpump Cocktail Garden for midnight nightcaps!! 🍹
And then in March 2020 — COVID-19 happened!!
You had been so desperate to make up for your August 2019 Vegas trip. You had bagged a pair of excellent seats for the George Strait Show and then subsequently your woman's numerous older brothers and sisters totally commandeered your vacation so that they could attend the George Strait Show too!!
And then COVID-19 came along in March 2020 and ruined all your big fancy birthday plans! The Nevada Governor shut down Las Vegas for three months and your very lovely lady got scared and went into Coronavirus Self-Quarantine! She locked herself in her home and swore she wouldn't come out to Play until a COVID-19 vaccine was perfected!
So now what? 😷🤔

A ragged Railway station poster, Essex. A dinner date for just twenty pounds!
Reminds me of the lyric 'Hey! Good looking, what you got cooking?' for some reason!

Well, Gentlemen — This Is It! This is going to be the Big Climax of your seven day Vegas Strip Venture! Regardless of whether Gonzaga or Baylor or UCLA or Houston wins the NCAA March Madness Final Four this week, this night will always be the Highlight of your week on the Vegas Strip — So Enjoy Your Big Dinner! 😌
Yesterday I had dinner at a restaurant called LE:EN in Utrecht. Such a nice, relaxing restaurant with great food!

It’s unlikely your neighborhood diner back home will serve you a 30 day plus dry aged NY Strip or Tomahawk Ribeye. But if they do, then you would do well to dine there as often as possible. In the meantime, order another Bourbon on the rocks and enjoy your steak dinner — Do so because Life Is Good Here! 😷😎
And while you're walking around, try to figure out how you're going to get tickets for the George Strait Show, or for Reba McEntire, when most stage production shows are postponing their Vegas return openings until late Fall or early 2021? 😷🤔
Gentlemen — How did you feel about your Dress Rehearsal at the Mayfair Supper Club? Even in the midst of the deadly Coronavirus Global Pandemic, you must concede that a supper club date night outing can be a swanky and romantic tryst! So now picture the near future where your fully vaccinated and very lovely lady has terminated her self-imposed 15+ month Coronavirus Quarantine and is no longer afraid of being around other people. Picture the near future on the Fabulous Vegas Strip filled with delightful date nights of luxurious fine dining, of rousing live music and exotic entertainment! Picture the near future filled with romantic and balmy nights of dancing the Rumba, Mambo, and the Cha-Cha with your very lovely lady!
Sounds like the makings of some Marvelously Magnificent Midnight Mischief — Doesn’t It!! 😈😌
So Gents, assuming your very lovely lady back home is monitoring your Flickr, Facebook, and Twitter social media photo postings right now on her handy little 🍎iPad, what do you think is on her mind? 🤔 Clearly your very lovely lady appreciates the difference between doing delivered take-out box dinners at home as opposed to savoring an excellent fine dining experience at either the Bellagio, Aria, Park MGM, or at the NY-NY Hotel & Casino! 😎 Hmmm....
