May 1984, I read your article and Wine spectator reviewed Masa's. We booked Vintage Court on our honeymoon, couldn't get reservation at Masa's but got on the wait list. After an afternoon of dim sum in SF and Alice Medrich's chocolate we got a call Masa's had an opening at 6pm. Stuffed as we were jumped at the chance. After a starter of seafood sausage threw my husband over the edge, he went up to our room as I finished the meal alone. I was entertained by a large group of people in town for the National Restaurant Association show. On the table were remarkable bottles and stacks of unfinished glasses of wine, notably a very old vintage Chateaux d'Yquem. My husband returned for dessert and needless to say missed a memorable meal. Actually after 39 years it is still one of our most memorable dining experiences!
