A few weekends ago, Andrew and I celebrated my bday with a fun dinner. Andrew had made reservations at an excellent restaurant (Fix Sixy by wolfgang puck) that I had wanted to go to (have had apps and drinks there but never dinner). I requested this place about a month in advance so he made reservations. The week of my bday I didnt feel like going there so we cancelled. Where to go?? I had no idea...I had heard of this new asian place but also another steak/seafood place I wanted to do. Whats a girl to do with so many good places to eat?!?! When we left the house we had still not decided. Im definitely the person who looks at a menu online before we go so I know what Im getting and what kind of food the place has. Well...Te'ian has no menu online (for a good reason!). The other place was Ocean Prime...you are bound to have a good dinner there. So we started off at Capital Grill for a drink. I was trying to make Andrew decide on where we were going to eat. After much discussion and indecisiveness...he said, well you love asian so lets go asian! So we did indeed. We had no reservations so I was hoping that would be ok. Well....we certainly didnt need reservations. There were probably only about 3 tables filled in the place. We sat down, looked at the menu...now im looking for the good sushi but its no where to be found. They have a very interesting menu...one thats really hard to understand and read. I felt terrible for choosing this place and immediately wanted to leave bc well...what are we going to end up eating? I was starving and wanting a great meal. So then the waiter tries to tell us how to read the menu and some specials. She ends of ordering for us bc we have No idea what to order. She did a fairly good job. The appetizers were the much preferred meals....over the main entree we split. Anyways, we left feeling not so satisfied. So what do we decide?? We went straight to Ocean Prime (which is where we should have gone in the first place). We get a drink, sit down at a table and tell our waiter our story. Andrew gets lobster bisque and I get an amazing dessert. The waiter ends up bringing out a bday drink....their signature martini, berries and bubbles. Delicious. Champagne + strawberries + martini'sk type drink + dry ice = berries and bubbles. It was great. The dessert was even better. And the lobster bisque was delicious. Needless to say, our next fun dinner out will be at Ocean Prime. And I will forever let Andrew decide where to eat (bc at Te'ian he said that he really wanted to go to Ocean Prime but decided on Te'ain for me bc of my asian love!).
