Speaking locally, my perfect day will involve a leisurely stroll from my apartment near the National Cathedral through Georgetown to the Garden at the Dumbarton Oaks, one of my favorite places on Earth. The roses will be in bloom and I will finish my tour with a stop at Café Bonaparte on Wisconsin Avenue where I will have a Savoy Salad and a Bellini. <br /> <br />The Savoy Salad is served with a steak knife. It needs it. This is a salad that is grilled and broiled. I am a firm believer that a salad can be a meal. I have a salad as a meal several times a week. This is the salad that would convince a meat and potatoes eater to give up meat and potatoes for a salad. <br /> <br />Now about those Bellinis and roses… <br />
