‘I heard there will be a bigger restaurant in their place. I never been to Di Lalla. I must say, it wasn’t very inviting. But it was there and now it’s not. I wish Georgette and Gilles to have a very happy retirement. On their last message, written on a paper place mat, they said : Thank you! To all our customers and friends for those beautiful 39 years. For some reason, I find this very moving.’ -nathalie
