Summary: At the last minute - my contribution to my Flash Challenge! The truth about a special birthday treat at Marcus Wareing's at the Berkeley.




It can be wearing
knowing how the staff will be,
how the clientèle present themselves,

whether wearing smart casual
will raise an eyebrow or two
or if designers jeans will do.

In reality, the experience
at Marcus Wareing's was
a delight. The sommelier

was from Hull. He was searching
for baby names - his wife was
pregnant. A lunchtime brought from heaven!
