Well, no, Joel Robuchon wasn't there in person, but he is always there in spirit. An astonishingly delicious celebratory lunch today with Walter and friends Marcella and Randy. Best taste of the day was certainly the sea bream carpaccio, feathery petals of fish marinated in citrus juice, plenty of lime zest, perfectly seasoned with olive oil and salt. My mouth still feels fresh and alive, happily accented with a few sips of Comte Lafon's stunning Macon.
