I have just returned from being treated to a birthday dinner at Nobu, in Malibu by my friends. Making the dinner reservation was not unlike a scene from L.A. Story.
We are not celebrities nor are we high profile. This apparently makes a difference at this particular restaurant. We were asked not once, but twice to vacate our table before we were finished with our meal, as the party waiting for our table had arrived.
NEVER, has this ever occurred at other various places we frequent in Malibu (Taverna Tony, Tra Di Noi, Allegria) and dinner at these places is what dinner is supposed to be, a pleasant and leisurely experience.
If ever I am nominated for an Oscar, I shall perhaps return to Nobu for a “leisurely” dinner. On second thought, I’ll go to Allegria..
