The new restaurant in the century-old Capital City Hotel is open for business, and it is well worth the trip. While you wait for a table, the colorful fish in the wall-sized aquarium will entertain you. Once you step into the dining room, you will feel as though you have stepped back in time. The gleaming, golden oak tables and chairs, and the red-flocked wallpaper will pull you back to the stately hotel’s earliest days. Once seated, guard against smacking your lips at the perfectly prepared meats, interestingly seasoned potatoes, and crisp-tender fresh vegetables.
List the sensory details from the paragraph in your books
