...continued.
A young lady let us know that our table was ready as she walked us to our seats. After a few minutes of taking in the atmosphere, our waiter greeted us with the drink specials. We had a moment to browse the menu as we selected which entrees we would dare to try.
Hubby ordered the filet mignon (a sweet backup in case mine wasn't to my liking) while I had the rack of lamb. The chef brought us out a taste of salmon mousse (too bad I found out approximately two years ago that I am highly allergic to seafood). I politely pushed mine aside as the waiter gave us each two delicious dinner rolls-1)A sun-dried tomato puff and 2)a delicious jalapeno with creamy boursin filling. Dinner arrived in a reasonable amount of time as we talked about our week.
My. Food. Was. Delicious.
The lamb was so tender that it fell apart with a fork. The juices were flavorful while the carrots and potatoes were just right. Hubby's steak was cooked perfectly while the garlic and butter perfectly melted into the meat.
If anyone knows me, they know that I am certainly a meat and potatoes kind of girl. That being said, I was leaning towards eating another helping before reaching for dessert; however, we ordered the waiter's recommendation for something sweet with a cup of coffee.
After filling ourselves to the brim, we finally decided to throw in the towel. We politely asked if there was a quiet place we could sit and admire the view as we were asked to take a seat on the bench. Being misunderstood, the manager came up to us and took us for a tour on the north side of the tower-asking what type of event we were looking to hold there. Embarrassed, we quickly let them know it was just for future endeavors and he slipped us his business card.
We walked to the elevator that seemed to go even faster while using gravity in its favor. I snapped a couple last photos as we made our way back to the pickup truck. The air was cool, but my heart was warm as I reached for the hand of my husband. I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the amount of love I have been blessed with.
