The final course was a magnificent board of home-made chocolates, but for some reason, the picture will not upload. In addition to the food, there were 8 paired wines; one for each course except for the 2 dessert courses. The entire dining experience was almost 6 hours in duration. There are not enough superlatives to describe the experience.

Oh my stars! That whole thing looks amazing. Now I am coveting a trip to V&A. Maybe for our 10th anniversary…
