I think perhaps I might not classify Dominique's as a restaurant at all, but an inept marketing campaign. The LAST (and believe me it's the last) time I went to Dominique's, they presented me with a wine list, told me they didn't have the first thing I asked for, and then brought a bottle from a different vintage of the new wine I requested. When I asked the waiter, and this is verbatim, he said "Oh, the years change all the time." But they have every flavor of the Dominique's brand soup available to take home as a souvenit... :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* :* Toni Burnham Publications Guru CFS/The World Bank Email aburnham@worldbank.org These comments are my own and are unlikely to resemble those of my employer.
