Especially delicious is the fact that Virbila echoes my sentiment that the restaurant is the antithesis of Ramsay's television shows. Like yours truly, Virbila is also in love with the risotto, the cod, and the pineapple souffle (which I described as "a wondrous tropical fluffy cloud in my mouth...[b]ursting with happiness," and she said was "blissfully light" and "high and proud").
The bad news: Reservations will now be harder to get after Virbila's thumbs up.

so ahead, that monkey.
ReplyDeletei'm amused at you idolizing a food critic.
ReplyDeleteThis monkey is culinary-forward.
ReplyDeleteYou're so ahead of the Times. (Yes, it's such a good pun I had to use it twice.)
ReplyDeleteToo bad I live in Omaha-effin-Nebraska.
ReplyDeleteYou eat the prettiest food, hands down :)
ReplyDeleteS. Irene ruins everything *pout* Maybe I can get in for a yummy midday lunch.
ReplyDeleteI'm just going to call and tell them I know THE Weezermonkey. I'm sure they'll find me a seat ASAP.
ReplyDeleteMy friend cleans fish and does other fun tasks at Gordon Ramsey's part time. This won't help me get into the restaurant any quicker or cheaper, I assume. =)
ReplyDeleteI prefer to eat vicariously through you anyway.
ReplyDeletein addition to all the people who said it in the comments on sunday's post, my mom also said you should be a food critic. i think it's so funny how people don't get the world of journalism. it's like saying you should be an astronaut. doesn't just happen. it's a whole career path. sigh.
ReplyDeletelove it!
