| If you are in Rochester, NY on the 13th or 14th you may want to book the dinner at Tastings restaurant being put on the by the famed chef David Bouley. Their telephone is 585-381-1881. I wish I was in Rochester that week.

| I stopped by there last Friday. The cost is $95/person and includes wines. They could not tell me the menu or the wines. | | | |
