TGIF =)
Hi all!
TGIF! It's a gorgeous day! And from what I'm hearing it will be like this through next week!
Yesterday I went into the city for Kim's farwell party at Les Halles! It was really nice to see all the people that I used to work with and salute her for FINALLY getting out (she's been there for over 4 years)...when I got there she was trying to leave and I left afer 16 months...and that was over a year ago! So you do the math!
Anyway, she's finally done with the area...and ready to move onto a new department (I believe somewhere in Engineering =))...
...but let me tell you about the food!
I had the specials (I had another plan in mind, but when the waitress described the specials I changed all my selections!)
For the starter, I had the gumbo tiger prawn grilled with an olive salsa and a side of watercress. Boy was this yummy! It was described as...these guys hang out with the lobsters =P
For my main course, I had the lamb shank with mashed potatoes, asparagus in a fabu brown gravy! YUMMY! This was tender and too tasty to not share (well my neighbors Kim and Jack had a taste!)
This was, of course, accompanied by a couple of glasses of Malbec...umm...semi-dry red...quite tasty!
For dessert, which I opted out, I had a cappucino...which was really yummy!
I was stuffed! I really needed the 14 block walk back to my car after that!
