The Society of the Crossed Keys: The Grand Budapest Hotel
I was particularly taken with this scene, as I’ve had a recurring fantasy of a similar nature; dining in a fine, old mansion, estate, castle or grand hotel, having course after course of gastronomic wonders, paired with wine and spirits; seated at an elaborately decorated table, across from a fascinating person with an amazing life story to tell.
