To La Belle Sole for a tas

had been looking forward to visiting Peppi’s
after it had closed for renovations for five
weeks. I made reservations for 8 p.m. on Fri-

day night for four people.

When we arrived we found
ourselves in a long line-up
behind about 12 other peo-
ple. We were told there
would be about a 20 minute
wait — but as we had taken
the time to reserve we decided
not to stand in line —

especially since there is no
lounge to sit in for a drink
while you are waiting.

It seems that Peppi’s ts as
popular as ever and I look
forward to dining there some
night but I hope when that

Now all of a sudden a deci-
sion had to be made. We

have always impressed me. It
is subdued yet tasteful.

petizer before dinner. Our
main courses included the
sole almandine, the _ veal
oscar, the New York steak
with prawns and the whole
fresh Dungeness crab.

After dinner we ordered
dessert and coffee, sat back
and relaxed and commented
on how weil the evening had
turned out.

La Belle Sole still has those
two successful ingredients
that I wrote about in my first
review — pleasant atm-
sophere and good food.

The bill for the four of us,
including our drinks, was
$109.40.

IDLE CHATTER: For
those fashion-conscious peo-
ple who like good food you
might try to make a reserva-
tion at La Belle Sole for
lunch on December Sth to
view the Fashion Show by
Jaeger.
