Lemaire

Well, Scott returned from his trip to Texas on Tuesday. I'm glad he is finally home to stay! The evening after he got home we headed over to Richmond with Liberty and AJ for our 7:45pm reservation at Lemaire. Lemaire is an old restaurant in the historic Jefferson Hotel that has been revamped and will be reopening July 8th. (I'm told it's named for Thomas Jefferson's personal chef.) London got us in for a test meal which was absolutely incredible. We had fried green tomatoes, oysters, scallops, crabmeat - those were just the appetizers!! For our entrees we had filet mignon, crabcakes, and salmon, topped off with incredible desserts. It was honestly the finest restaurant I've ever eaten in. We loved it. The hotel is also amazingly beautiful. We are so proud of London for getting out there and landing such a high major job!! I can't wait until the next time we get to dine there!!!
