That sounds like a magnificent meal. I'm on a diet and just reading that list is making me drool.

I would sub a filet mignon for the roast beef, add lobster, sub a crusty Italian or French bread with Irish butter for the sourdough, sub black rose tea for coffee and sub lemon mousse w/ raspberry sauce for Boston cream pie.

Otherwise, perfect!

Start with the spinach artichoke dip appetizer.
