THE ENGAGEMENT TABLE
Ralph's on the Park, New Orleans
There are half-a-dozen tables on the wrought-iron balcony of this Brennan family beauty, but one sits around the corner, sheltered from other diners by a wall of plantings. Your view: City Park, where 100-year-old oak trees are hung with sheets of Spanish moss. Your meal: a blend of New Orleans classics and comfort food (seared foie gras on a fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich). In the off chance that the balcony is booked for an event (horrors!), you'll be shown to a love seat table inside-not a bad plan B. The final touch: Ask the restaurant to place the ring in a special dessert or in a glass of bubbly; they'll bring you complimentary glasses of champagne to toast your future.
