"Dataw Island Club will be hosting Valentine's Dinner in The Pub, as we
did in 2013, for couples and small groups. To make Reservations for this event, please call" (snipped) "no walk-in service will be available this evening." God forbid you should be single and want to eat out on Valentine's Day! Here's the menu. Sorry, they sent it in a .gif format again. http://tinypic.com/r/29uq8lv/8 Jill |

They need a French spellcheck. Maybe you can volunteer to eye-ball their menus?
As to wanting to eat there solo on Valentine's Day, I can imagine pleasanter prospects. How are you doing on eating up that assessment so far for 2014? |

I suppose I'm in the same boat - no life. 8-) I enjoy menus as inspiration and history; I periodically browse/search the online menu collection of the New York Public Library. If not for that source, I'd not know that, in the early 1900s, several railroads offered jelly omelets in their dining cars, as did a number of hotels. http://menus.nypl.org/ |

Of course I could kill file, now that she is better at including Dataw in the subject line. But if you had a friend in person who was constantly bitching about something like this, wouldn't you tell her to get over it? Think about it - would you and your friends really keep inviting her along on your lunch outings if she was certain to moan and groan about the same damn thing over and over (Dataw, bad spouse, ungrateful kids, Richard Nixon - it doesn't matter the subject)? Or would you politely tell her she is doing herself no favors? Or maybe you would egg her on and watch the downward spiral - is that what you would do? |

Can't stand canned cream of mushroom soup but I've had one or two good ones in restaurants. I think the "Baby Iceburg Wedge" for the salad course is a scream. :) Since I don't eat salad, most restaurants usually allow me to sub a cup of soup. So, in this case would I get two soups?
