Quite a combination for a wonderful evening. The elegant • adventure was our first trip to what has to be Detroit's finest gourmet restaurant...La Fontaine in the Renais- sance Center's Detroit Plaza Hotel. The 145-seater is all in one room, but gives the ap- pearance of separate areas...Decorated in deep reds and burgundies, the semi-circular alcoves with golden mesh streamers amidst indirect lighting overhead provide a view of a circular white marble fountain softly bubbling with water...accomodating the personal likes of the most discriminating. Everything is done in ele- gant taste...like the person- alized matches at your table...Kuno Fasel, execu- tive assistant --director and food and beverage head of the hotel, who joined wife Frieda and ourselves, is Swiss-born, brought here from the Johannesburg Car- lton in South Africa...As Kuno explained, his "wife" is always with him as he works 14 to 18 hours a day and is very happily "mar- tied" to higo job. To start the evening off, Sharon Winkler brought Frieda a red rose to either pin on or put in a silver vase until she went home...Imagine our sur- prise when the person in- troducing himself to wait on us turned out to be Kenny Schwartz, Trudy and the late great caterer Her- man Schwartz' son...He has certainly grown to be a fine young man...Kuno calls him his personal protege. Manager of La Fontaine came: by and who should it be but swell guy James Moore, 30 years in the res- taurant game, with expe- rience ranging from waiter Having An Affair?

Before dinner, we had a bottle of Pouiily-Fuisse brought to us by Madeline Triffon, with wine-tasting cup, around her neck...Madeline is the daughter of Chris Triffon, who use to head the King's Arms and Christopher's on Southfield. Then came din- ner...served with elegance from La Fontaine's own sep- arate kitchen. We started out with Le Pate Canard En Gelee, a de- licious duck pate made with port wine and served with golden aspic and melba toast. Then Jimmy Moore made us an elegant Le Regal Dungeness Salad...a compo- sition of Dungeness crab legs, sliced avocado, hearts of celery, and artichokes with a tangy celery seed dressing. Madeline then poured a beautiful Cote de Beaune-- Villages red burgundy wine. Jimmy, indeed a master of the flame, then made us Les Mignons de Boef "Madagascar"...two beef mignons sauteed in butter with Madagascar green pep- percorns, flamed with cham- pagne and served with saf- fron rice. Frieda has escargots with a touch of Puilly-Fuisse in them; Ld'' Creme Aux Huitres "Bongo Bongo," a soup that exquisitely blends oysters, green peas, shal- lots, cream and white bur- gundy wine...It was de- licious...nothing like we've ever tasted before...Her salad was La Salade Cae- sar, made by Jim at our table...and then he flamed the entree...La Cote de Veau "Robe du Soir"...veal loin chop sauteed in butter, crowned with moreli mush- rooms, Greenpoint aspa- ragus flavored with armag- nac and enveloped in parch- ment. Then came dessert, Kenny's favorite depart- ment, so to speak, as he rolled over a cart with goodies to be had nowhere else...La Fontaine main- tains its own bake shbp, also, with breads and pas- tries coming from there...We are not much of a dessert eater, • but on Eddie's cart was something we just had to try...a choco- late and pear torte "ala Schwartz" which was double lip-smacking good. In the meantime, another old friend, Eddie Malunda, had poured us some more coffee...So many folks will remember smiling Eddie from Hugo's on North- western and 12 Mile. Then Frieda had Coffee Diablo, flamed at the table by Jim, who has yet to singe one hair on his suave mustache...grand marnier, brandy, cinammon sticks, whole cloves and coffee beans...poured into a glass with edges rolled in sugar.
