His private property was gorgeous (gazebo, springs nearby, tons of pine trees, deer, owls, cicadas), but he lives in France now.

Anyway, everything was natural (organic)- his food preference identification is Vegan...

We had a roasted vegetable medley, made and dressed in olive oil and sea salt and various herbs he grew in his gardens: beets, parsnips, carrots, baby red potatoes, kale, walnuts, and anise. When the vegetables were tender from roasting, he added crumbled feta and baby spinach leaves to the mixture and served it with freshly baked homemade bread. We had a special wine from France (where he is from) with the meal, too. Can't remember the vintner's name or anything, but the meal was out of this world. I had no idea what marvelous cooking skills he had, but I was aware of his expertise in herbs. He was a fabulous gardner, well versed in many subjects and conversation, excellent food and star gazing with wine made for a wonderful, relaxing evening.

Sometimes the simplest of meals are the most memorable. The ambience,and great conversation mixed with the pleasures of the palate.....ahhhhhhhhhhh,doesnt get any better!!! Except for the bottle(s) of good wine...lol
