I have often passed Annabelle's on my travels downtown but have never dropped in.  I decided to give it a try this time.  I was a little nervous that they wouldn't be able to serve me as I only had an hour before my movie started at the Metreon.  I asked the hostess if they could accomadate my  time restraints and was assured that I would get to my movie on time.\r	
    Sure enough, the waitress was able to get me a wonderful fresh salad of blood-oranges followed by  the best whole sole that I have had in a long time.  Glancing at the big clock on the wall, it looked like I might not make it to the show, but I was reasured that the clock was on ""bar time"" and thus set 10 minutes fast.  ""Heck"" I thought.  I even have enough time for a cup of coffee.\r	
     Next time, I'm giving my self enough time to really relax and enjoy the great service and out-of-this world food that Annabelle's has to offer.
