I love the River Cafe - I think the food is delicious, fresh, simply prepared and the dining room delightful. Before I get flamed, let me also add that I've only been there once - on a gloriously hot summer day - we sat outside and enjoyed a glass of chilled rose with lunch - heaven! AND, I was there with a friend who works in an office nearby, and thus was able to order off the special 2-course, 15 pound (perhaps it's 20 pounds?) lunch menu. Would I return? Yes, absolutely, but probably only if I could order off the special lunch menu... though I do think it would be a wonderful way to celebrate Thanksgiving day. As an aside, I LOVE the River Cafe Easy cook books, particularly the first one. Thu Oct 26 02:15:46 -0700 2006 1966634 13473 Petitpois 1 1973856 thank you for your response! It sounds like it will be the right spot. It's also my mom's 60th bday. I also have loved Ruth Rogers and Rose Gray's cookbooks and TV shows for about 12 years and I'm an architect - so it can't hurt to be in a Richard Rogers space...

Would love to hear about it.
