Ivy League Weekend

Just returned from a fabulous weekend in NYC. We we invited to a wedding at the Yale Club so of course we stayed there for two nights. It reeked old school academia. One of those places that either you have to be a member of or at least have one sponsor you. I soaked up as much as I could. The wedding was as close to perfect as any wedding could ever hope to be. From the ceremony to the last song played by the band, everything was just devine. Lavish and outright fabulous are not strong enough words. Besides the wedding, we dined on Friday night at La Grenouille, a few blocks over. Reccomended by my gourmand BIL, we settled on the Theatre Prix Fixe rather than take out a loan to go the full route. Nice meal but no match for the wedding dinner. According to my sources, he dropped close to $600 on his last outing there. A quick trip over to Brooks Brothers for some long pants for DH (dress code at the YC) and a 15 minute visit to Saks rounded out the shopping. A high point (no pun intended) was having breakfast up on the roof dining room at the Club. this is the only place I want to stay in NYC from now on!!!
