Spring is now full until December. That's absolutely crazy. Lunch on Thursdays and Fridays at 13h is still available about one week in advance.
I just returned from Chicago where I saw my little niece Ella B. and the rest of my family. I had a great time at Charlie Trotter's with some old friends and my brother and his cherie. We were suprised to be seated in the kitchen and we really enjoyed ourselves. Service is excellent and both the food and wine (and the kitchen) provided the perfect backdrop to spend time with people that I would love to see more often. Bravo to Charlie and his crew- real pros who know that a restaurant is for eating, drinking, and having a good time.
I had a great day of sailing with Una P. ,Scott L. and Joey D.
