For a VERY SPECIAL GUEST, I open the big the dining room table, put out the fancy, fancy dishes, tablecloth (off white damask), good silver, good crystal all that stuff to make it LOOK elegant.

The meal is prime rib/roast beef, snow peas, buttered mini red potatoes, elegant salad with different lettuces, basic vinagrette with dijon, small rolls with butter.

Fine wine.

Coffee with a fine coffee style cake.
