A few weeks ago, Jan and Peter managed to get reservations at Frances, which turned out to be one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. I’m told that it is nearly impossible to get reservations, so they must have had a last-minute cancellation! Highly recommended. After I got home, I made a couple more reservations on Open Table. The first slot available was 5 weeks out.

I got a surprise holiday gift in the mail from Unterwasser Magazine last month — very thoughtful. Thank you!
