The Capitol City Opera Company singers perform here on Tuesday, May 16th and Thursday, May 18th, at 6:15 pm, for Dinner and a Diva: a night of delicious food and performances from Massenet’s Cendrillon. “Cendrillon is Massenet’s beautiful operatic retelling of the fairy tale of Cinderella. We meet all our favorite characters: the horrible step-mother Madame de la Haltière, and step-sisters Noémie and Dorothée, Cendrillon’s kind-hearted father Pandolfe, the Fairy Godmother (La Fée), and, of course, Le Prince Charmant. When Cendrillon is left behind, again, by her step-mother and step-sisters, as they go off to a ball with the Prince, La Fée hears her sadness, and wants to make her happy. She brings spirits and elves and instructs them to weave a dress out of star-silk, and color it with moonlight so that Cendrillon can also go to the ball. The finishing touch is, of course, the enchanted glass slipper, which will protect Cendrillon’s identity should she run into her family at the ball. There is only one rule, she must be back for midnight.” Enjoy a four-course dinner with wine in between songs.

This is “Mr. Eligible”, the most romantic television show ever developed. For 21 years, 25 seasons, and 263 episodes, a major network has introduced us to a single man trying to find love. This season’s star of “Mr. Eligible” is the SUPREMELY hot Smokin’ Underhill. He’s a millionaire, he’s gorgeous, and he’s a gorgeous millionaire.
Joining Smokin’ on his journey for love is the usual cast of anxious ladies looking for a husband, there’s the sassy one, the confident one, the quiet one, and of course, the insane one. Seriously. She’s nuts. Will anyone receive that coveted final rose? Maybe not.
Because this season, somebody has decided that LOVE is worth dying for! A mysterious stranger is killing contestants, hosts, heck, maybe even trying to kill Mr. Eligible himself. Join the extremely handsome Mr. Eligible, his extremely hot single ladies, and a couple of extremely ridiculous guests, as they take all of us on an out-of-this-world journey to find love! A story like this has never been told during dinner before, it’s “The Bachelor: A Double Date with Death.”

This Atlanta Restaurant Offers A Tasty Trifecta On One Plate

They say good things come in threes. The chicken salad at Petite Violette is an instant ooh-la-la experience, via salad.
At the quaint French bistro, a trifecta of salads unites on a plate. Creamy chicken salad anchors, with a mound of diced, white meat chicken, celery and onions. It’s not overly herby, but is accented with herbs de Provence. Large pecans add crunch.
Piled to one side is a mixture of field greens, tomato wedges and red onion slivers, lightly dressed in lemony vinaigrette, made with one of the high-grade olive oils available for purchase in the tasting boutique.
On the opposite side is a colorful fruit salad. The pineapple, quartered strawberries and blueberries are stunning, both visually and texturally.
The dish offers an interplay of juicy, crunchy textures, as well as presenting appetizer, entree and dessert on one plate. Warm sourdough rolls and butter are served alongside. Bon appétit!
