The original had a wonderful "old world" elegance. In a former life with a former partner, we used to go there for the caviar and vodka "tastings", following by a sumptious dinner.

We would be therr anywhere from 3-5 days, see a show everynight, eat in a variety of restaurants, shop until we couldn't carry anymore. It was nice to have a big salary in those days. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Saturday, 05(V)/03(III)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Countdown till Memorial Day 3wks 1dys 12hrs 55mins ------------------------------------------- Iraqi Bingo B-52..F-16..A-10..
