She gulped hard as her mouth watered seeing the five-star meal laid out on the table, it was definitely an upgrade from the one pot chicken pasta she always made for herself. Grayson took a chair out of the table and reeled her wheelchair in, then he poured her a glass of wine and took a seat at the opposite side of the table, the chef came in and took a bow which she found inadvertently strange, ‘Tonight I, Monseuir Roberto have prepared for you both a three course meal— Lobster ravioli, with carbonara fettuccine, garlic bread as the madame seems to like and some macarons for dessert....enjoy'.

“Let’s just enjoy being here, together, on our honeymoon.” I clinked my glass against his, nodding. The food, when it arrived, was as delicious as promised. We shared a decadent plate of bruschetta, polishing off every piece of toasted bread with tomatoes, and were still hungry for more when the entrees came.

Lobster tails, shrimp, bay scallops, mussels, and fresh tomatoes served over linguini in a garlic and white wine broth.” I explained as I set her dome out of the way and went to get the wine. When I walked back in with two glasses in one hand and the bottle of pinot gris in the other, I couldn’t help smiling. She was leaning over her plate, smelling her dinner with a smile.

Judeo informed me, which made me nod. “I’m coming, wait for me there at the main entrance,” I raised my voice before calming myself down so that I can walk properly. It wasn’t long until we entered the restaurant. Its name was Linguini, full of Paris-special dishes with a little bit of a touch of New york. Some of the displays were cookies, and cakes and those were my favorites because they were all made with cheese and cream cheese. Aside from that, the ambiance of the air puts my whole being at ease because the place wasn’t too cold or warm.

PLEASURE Madonna's Pov "Is that Russian food?," I asked before I could stop myself. Oliver barked out a laugh and looked up from the pot of boiling water to glance at me over his shoulder. "No it's not" "It's a rather simple dish, actually. It just sounds fancy." I listened to him as l sat on the one of the stools at the kitchen island to watch him as he cooked.

The rest of the day was non-eventful, but Ragnor spent some time with his family waiting for nightfall so he could see Clara. At the same time back in California, Clara and Grace were back from the market and were busy in the kitchen. "Okay, we have all the ingredients we need. We can start," Grace announced. "No, you sit," Clara said pulling a chair for Grace, " Tell me what to do," she added happily. "Okay, let's start first with cooking the linguine in the large pot of salted boiling water until tender. For about 8 to 10 minutes. Then we drain and then toss it with the olive oil," Grace instructed and Clara quickly got to work.

We have on the menu tonight a wonderful Frutti de Mare pasta made with baby clams, mussels, squid and shrimp in a thick red homemade Arrabiata sauce, dare I say, as red as the lady's hair." said chef Gianno with a smile.
