I've been traveling this last week, and I have a couple posts to add from my eating adventures in the midwest, but first I have to wish Happy Birthday to me, and rave about the excellent meal I was treated to last night at WD-50. I only got snaps of dessert, which was a chocolate mousse ribbon with lime gelato, spots of avocado, and chocolate crumbles that the waiter accurately described as "oreo dust". On top of that, the kitchen sent us a chocolate cake with candied tube and a candle inside...
Also, great foodie celeb spotting-- first, Lee Anne from Top Chef walks in with her posse, and heads straight to the kitchen to talk to the chefs. A little later, LBT asks, "where's Harold?"... and lo and behold, the winner of Top Chef showed up too!
Highlights of the dinner were a root vegetable lasagna and the steak entrees... we tried ocean trout, but it was a bit fishy... it was Monday, however... but would Tony make such excuses?
happy birthday!
ReplyDeletewhere are the pix of harold and lee anne? that would have been cool.
We thought it'd be a little too stalker-ish and geeky to ask for photos, but I swear we both said, "Howard would do it!"

Happy Birthday Len!!! Howard would of course -- I've been there on 2 occasions at least - Sofia Coppola and Andre 3000. I'm sure there were more...
