A night out on the town

 Well, a night out for dinner, in town.


Here is what happened.

Our daughter generously switched out a gift card of ours ( bed bath and beyond? ) for one of hers

A Fancy restaurant in Bellevue...very fancy.


We had waited almost a month to get in ( that was one clue )

I used Open Table to make the reservations, linked it to my google calendar and

presto.... morning reminder..  6:00 dinner 

We gave ourselves plenty of time, tapped on the reservations in my phone and

presto... GPS took over.   No wrong turns.  Just a hard time finding a parking place ( that was another clue )


From the first glance, we were impressed.  Even the outside dining was inviting with lights, greenery, white table cloths and yes, heaters. And almost every table filled with happy hungry people. 

We stepped inside and with our reservations we were seated immediately. 







Our table was in the center of  the dining area.  We could see that most of the other tables were occupied and you have to agree, it is free entertainment to view other guests. 


Hard not to imagine the "relationship" of the couple to the left of us. They were sitting opposite of each other while the couple just ahead of us were sitting side by side.  


The table to the right had 4 gentlemen in their long sleeved mostly white shirts and very engaged in conversation. 

There was a group of happy looking, mostly blonde ladies in a cozy corner, but not out of sight. 


People come and go and mostly in black, oh wait, the wait staff is mostly in black and the guests, well they all look very comfortable. Very confidently strolling to their reserved spot.  They like to be noticed.  


 
I sort of confidently stroll to the powder room




 A little hard to see but
the sink is very unusual
There is a long drain right under the mirror  
Yes, that is my little black handbag
and if you look fast, you will see two of me








You can see for yourself, the portions were generous
and not much room left for dessert 




 

  It was a tempting dessert menu,  but we decided to save that for another time




But wait.... we  given a little treat to take home
one for each of us 

their own Biscotti 







Yes,  I live an exciting life
