Well, past experience can leave your views on the matter somewhat jaded...when you expect something from a situation, the mere expectation can make you feel differently.
Sounds like you had a good time in this case though...wish there were a few more places like that around here. I mean, yes, I can go to certain places I'm familiar with that are what you'd consider upperclass, and receive the kind of treatment I feel is appropriate, but in my experience, my growing experience, is that this isn't always the case...in fact, it's more often that not, the opposite.
I have to admit, when initially trying the places I HAVE been satisfied with, that I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
I think unfortunately, far too many places are more concerned with preserving their own "image", than serving all customers in the same manner. For this reason, I'm far happier "slumming it" by comparison. If I want something REALLY nice, I'll just cook it.
