A Guest Post: Blissful Dining at Bliss

A New Year’s Eve Feast
tres chic
The San Antonio Express-News recently reviewed Feast and wrote, “Everything about Feast is beautiful — the gleaming whitewalls and tables, clear acrylic chairs, glittering multicolored chandeliers, the glamorous servers of both sexes, and the gorgeous plating of various dishes.” We could not agree more. It was as if we stepped out of casual, comfy San Antonio and into the Chicago or NYC dining scene.
