French onion soup--Delicious in spite of the 100-degree weather.
The Technique salad--Sara ordered it, so I had a bite. Very good. I love it when eggs are in the happy medium between hard and soft boiled. I had the spinach salad with beets and pecans. Those are three of my favorite ingredients in the universe, so I was in heaven.
A giant fried ball of mozzarella? Kill me now. The tapenade was delightful. Also Sara's. She was a good sport for letting my photograph her food before she could touch it.
Lobster endive salad--This was my actual appetizer and it was uh-mazing.
Salmon--Sara's entree choice. She didn't share. (Kidding, Sara!)
Filet mignon--The beef was decent (too cooked for my taste), the sauce was out of this world. Fun fact: Before my mission, I didn't like rare to medium-rare meat. Now I wouldn't have it any other way.
Bananas Foster--Ordered by the table of friends next to us, we all enjoyed the show. They let us have a taste of it. The caramelized bananas were divine.
I ordered apple pie for my dessert, but came away disappointed. I should have followed my heart and gone for the crème brûlée.
Food regrets are a real thing. Talk to your kids today. (This PSA has been brought to you from the Society of followyourfoodheart.org. The more you know!)

Holy cats, $15??
There is a restaurant in Chicago. I need to arrange something and go.
Want to come? ;)
Can I go there now, please?
Oh! Yes! There's one in my hometown!
Oh goodness, I love pretty food!!
xox
Hey! I resent that! Even if you WERE kidding!
BUT! It was amazing food, wasn't it? We definitely need to go back and try other things. And you need to get creme brulee next time!
Also, I like the picture you took of my salmon! :)
Oh my lord, this restaurant is the best thing I've never heard of. Must go to the one in LA, ASAP!
