Another night at the Marriott

Los Angeles, September 12, 2015—
NO PHOTO TONIGHT, and you're not missing all that much. Here's what the menu said:

First Course


Iced Tea

Whole Wheat Rolls with Butter

Mixed Green Salad with Minted Tomatoes and Homemade Croutons
Served with Champagne Vinaigrette

Entrée

Grilled Salmon

Served with Pine Nut and Cranberry
Couscous, Asparagus and Carrots with a Burr Blanc Sauce

Dessert

Chocolate Pyramid

Coffee & Tea
This was served to probably two hundred people at a conference we've been attending. A no-host cocktail party had preceded the dinner, and after an acceptable Martini there I had the foresight to buy a bottle of wine to take to our table:
Chardonnay, Stonegate (Napa Valley), 2013
•Los Angeles Airport Marriott, 5855 West Century Boulevard, Los Angeles, California
The one good thing: at the lottery drawing, I won a shipment of salmon from Alaska. I don't know how big it is, or when or how it will be shipped. I'll let you know more when it arrives…
Restaurants visited in 2015 are listed at Eatingday's Restaurants (but, again, not tonight's)
