Fathers Day 2011

H: of course Madison wants our first post to be about our purpose and/or mission for this blog. And I just wanna say happy Fathers day from my bar stool at the new and amazing Cipriani property in Beverly Hills. It's fabulous. I feel like I'm in Venice, Italy (although I've never been). We've just finished lunch and I couldn't be feeling more international!!

M: thanks Hobie. We've decided to convert our kitchens into closets because we never use them....... since we eat out for every meal of the week. We really love restaurant experiences. Of course with Hobie and me, it always starts with the staff - they make it or break it. H+M Eats will be about our personal preference in restaurant experiences. For us, the staff is key. We love food. However, if the staff and ambiance lack....we probably won't return.

Now about Mr. C - the restaurant in the new Cipriani hotel. What a makeover from the old Prescott Hotel. Design - it's reminiscent of the Cipriani brand with regards to fresh, simple ingredients, delicious food (only the bartenders are more deelish), Venetian glassware and furniture, high gloss rosewood paneling, mahogany bar........and the famous signature Cipriani Bellini. Italians everywhere! What could be better?

Happy Fathers day.

Thank you to Josh and Georgi for the final inspiration to start H+M Eats. You both made our first experience at Mr. C one that will entice us to encourage our friends to try!! Even if they're not Italian!!
