Dinner with friends

darkemeraldsI never enjoy my town more than when lovely visitors come and seem to appreciate the place.
ranunculus and her friend D are visiting just outside of town for a few days, and made their way downtown (after a wine-country tour, no less!) to dine with me at Brasserie Montmartre. They live in San Francisco, so they know cities and restaurants, and they were kind enough to say that if for some reason they had to leave home, Portland would be their next choice.
So I'm all puffed up, more than usual, about My Little Town.
We had lovely French bistro food (including two different versions of the Bra's fabulous frites--one in duck fat, one in pork fat), Scotch whisky, Oregon wine, and loads of laughs and conversation. And lavender crème brûlée for dessert.
I finally saw them to the streetcar station not long before 9:00--the hours flew by.
Thank you,ranunculus and D. It was a fine evening.
