That sounds a cool menu Chubby! I clicked on the picture to make it bigger, but it went to your photo. Black & white photo's are making a comeback here, I think some actually look better than coloured!

We should celebrate their anniversary anyway...in their honor! The photo is amazing (we all know how much I love vintage) and the menu sounds divine. Any recipes from the menu you'd like to share?
