Date Night



We had a new culinary experience tonight. Chris and I had a double date with our good friends Rob and Kara. Rob suggested May Street Market in West Town. None of us had been to this restaurant and after looking at the website I felt that it was more of an food-as-art type of restaurant with skimpy portions. What's the problem with that you say--well, I like to eat!!! I was right it was art but they didn't skim on quality or quantity. The food was excellent!! And, I loved the whole vibe of the restaurant---eloquent, sleek, stylish, but really comfortable and nature inspired at the same time-- not pretentious at all. You can order normally or they offer a full three-course meal for $32. We did both. Way to go Rob. Can't wait for our next adventure!
