A perfect Birthday dinner
My boyfriend treated me to a delicious, romantic dinner at Cafe Stella. It's a restaurant I've always wanted to try but strayed away because of the expensive menu. Although prices are high, the quality is outstanding. We shared a steak tartar appetizer and both had the Coq au Vin (chicken for those who don't speak French). We ended the night with a warm bread pudding topped with cool vanilla ice cream. The evening was relaxing and our waitress was delightful. I would return to Cafe Stella any day.
Well-hidden treasure
No street number or name visible from Sunset Blvd. All I could see was Cheese Store, or something. However, once found and inside, the food was excellent, the service was efficient, the wine from Provence was delightful, and the ambience was comfortable. Not very many gay people, though, only four tables were identifiable as gay out of 15 or so.
