Live Well. Live Guilty. Live a Legendary Life......

January 17th came and went last week without raising a glass to the American Hobbit aka Benjamin Franklin. We corrected that oversight with a fine French Bougelet.  One of the Founding members of the Guilty Pleasures was toasted recently in Princeton as we catered a Guilty Pleasures luncheon featuring Filet Mignon soaked in roasted shallot butter. On decree from the secret brain trust of the Guilty Pleasures Club, no calorie counting was allowed in this Central Jersey hamlet for January and February as spicy french fries and beer-battered onion rings provided the perfect accompaniments to our exceptionally tender tenderloin.

Individually prepared by Chef Greg and Chef Jay, the Banana's Foster provided a wickedly delicious dessert. This flambeed Mari Gras favorite is always a GPC attention getter. Second servings are highly-recommended.

This decadent winter luncheon was worthy of a Guilties nomination, Copycating is enthusiastically encouraged. After all, the pursuit of happiness is a groundbreaking inalienable right granted by the U.S. Constitution. It has been long rumored that the esteemed Dr. Benjamin Franklin, looking to hide a secret life, was an original member of the Guilty Pleasures Club. We are still waiting on official confirmation. There is no better way to celebrate the monumental moments in your life than with an event extraordinaire catered by Provence.

To paraphrase the wisdom and visionary words of our most-famous local founding father.......

Raise your glass in tribute.  Live Well. Live Guilty. Live a Legendary life!
