per se BBV

[mindless]

My fiance has wanted to go to per se for a long time, and her birthday is New Years Eve, so I called up per se to see if I could get reservations. They only take them 2 months in advance, so yesterday at 10am I started calling. I couldn't get through for about 30 minutes, and then when I finally got through, I got "the last reservation they had" for 5:30pm for two people. Price fixe menu is $600/person. It's arguably the best restaurant east of the Mississippi. It's also going to cost at least $1500 after drinks, tax, and tip. It's also dinner at 5:30 (that will probably be done around 9) followed by figuring out what to do until midnight and whatnot. I have until tomorrow to hold the reservation with a credit card and will talk to her about it tonight, but first, I ask you, BBV:
