Picture this...dining in a rooftop garden with a view of the city and the water below. The table covered with white linen and a handful of vibrantly coloured sunflowers sit in a white vase in the centre. The chairs are wide and comfortable, with fluffy oversized pillows printed with a graphic black and white design on the seat and back. Smooth, polished white stones are scattered artfully around the table - every detail, just so. Wine glasses sparkle in the late afternoon sunlight as the warm breeze rustles through the tall grasses, gingko, and maple trees planted around the table.
Dinner was brilliant. Started off with a basket of baguette slices and a dish of roasted garlic and soft cheese each, followed by fresh pasta with scallops and crabmeat in a cream sauce. I brought some elderberry flower water and berries to accompany the meal - which turned out to be a nice complement.
We ate, talked, laughed, took silly pictures, and watched the sun go down across the water as tugboats drifted by. It's the most perfect evening I've spent in a long time.
