IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH THOUGHT TO FIGURE OUT WHY I SELDOM DINE AT TRENDY, FASHIONABLE, CHIC RESTAURANTS......

French-Italian restaurant Elise debuts Aug. 19 at the Woodruff Arts Center,  and will feature such delectations as:  
i.e. three pieces of rusk ( crunchy, twice baked cake) with some bits of this and that, applied with tweezers and fingers....in the prevailing style of minimalist platters......  served with a triple-marked up table wine........   no thanks, "Elise"...this is not "Für" me....



and...I can have this plate of tasty goodies...at home......on far more beautiful Art Nouveau porcelain..
