Dinner in Phipp's forest

This looks cool to me; I'd love to have a dinner in the Tropical Forest at Phipps. Dinner might be a little pricey, but if it's top notch food combined with a wonderful ambiance, why not, we only live once. If dinner doesn't work for you try brunch. Admission to the conservatory is included, sounds like a great Friday night to me.

Here's the info from Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens-

I can't think of a better place to be at the end of winter.
