A Whole New World of Huggles

For those of you wondering, my Valentine's date went very well. Once I got to his house, he told me to look in the refridgerator. I thought there would be flowers in there, but he actually had bought me chocolate covered strawberries. I had totally forgotten that I had asked for them a week or so before. They were VERY delicious!

He took me to this great restaurant that's modeled after a loft..the main colors were a burgandy and tan and then wood mixed in. The atmosphere of it was so cool. The only downside was that we sat so extremely close to the other couples. It was almost like we were eating dinner with them too.

So we look at the menus and there's food on there that I had heard of, but had no idea of what it was. (I mean this was a restaurant that served braised rabbit... :hurl: ) If any of you watch Friends it's the kinda food that Monica serves at her work.

I had the pork tenderloin w/ black mission fig demi-glace & roasted garlic mashed potatoes and what's-his-face had the crispy golden trout w/ fragrant basmati rice & soy-red chili vinaigrette. Neither of us really knew what we were getting but it ended up being pretty good. It definitely had presentation to it too. It looked all fancy when we got it. There wasn't a LOT of food on the plate, so I thought I was going to be hungry when I left, but I wasn't.

Then for desert (which is something that what's-his-face usually doesn't eat...but he decided we could share last night) we had milk chocolate mousse wrapped in a dark chocolate ribbon w/ crème anglaise & berry salsa.

(In case you can't tell, I took the menu descriptions right off their website. :) )

All in all it was a wonderful meal and he did a great job of picking out somewhere that we've never eaten before. Although it was a little too "fancy" for our tastes, it was very good and there is the possibility that we could go back there again.

So thanks IMoms for all your help...I ended up wearing the dress that I had...but that's because I couldn't find a sweater that I liked enough for this date. I wore my pearls with it and my pearl earrings as well. He wore a grey button down with a grey and black tie and black pants.
