What makes a great dining evening?
Gordon Ramsay describes the perfect waiter/waitress as one who manages to do their job without being noticed. Looking back at some of my greatest dining experiences, I'd say he's right. The only time I never noticed the wait staff was when I needed them, and when I did, they were right next to me without my even having to lift a finger.
Attentiveness, without being imposing. Friendly, yet reserved. Tactful in all situations, even if the customer is being a jerk. Those are the signs of a remarkable water/waitress, and definitely a large part of the customer's overall perception of a restaurant that'll ultimately make them repeat customers!
Side note: I was recalling my experience from Per Se in New York while describing the above. Truly impeccable wait staff!

For heaven's sake, people...with a little careful financial planning you CAN have a lifetime supply of bacon, butter, mortadella. Costco, hello?
Black truffles, hands down.

Greyhounddrrl,
Do yourself a favor and go for a meal at Comme Chez Soi, located on Place Rouppe. I've only had a handful of life altering meals (Per Se, French Laundry, Robuchon in Macau) and Comme Chez Soi was one of them. They have a Chef's table located right in the kitchen, which you should def. ask about, where you'll be able to see Chef Rigolet work his magic.
If you can't make it for dinner, I recall they had a very affordable lunch tasting menu too--something along the lines of 50 Euros per head.
Good luck!
