Dinner at Seasons 52

Well, I have a picture right here of the four of us at dinner, but I can't make the ding blasted scanner work...  It says I need a software update, but Windows 8 won't let me look for it!  Aggggh!

So, hopefully this pic from their website will help:  (on the bottom of the page--it won't let me write underneath the picture for some reason.)

Julie and Chris took us out to celebrate TR's birthday.  She immediately ordered champagne  and we then ordered four appetizers to share.  I wasn't greatly impressed with the seafood, but loved the ravioli (if memory serves, it was spinach and feta).  Very good.  All of us but Chris had rack of lamb (which was lovely, but way too much--I took half of mine home, along with some of TR's and half of Julie's.  We ate it the next night also.)  Chris had a steak and loved it.

You can see the dessert platter below, except we were brought a dessert tree (on a tree-shaped stand like a cupcake stand) with TR's birthday candle on the top.  Fun.  We could take as many as we wanted--I think everyone took three, except me--I took two.  And my first choice was not much to my liking--Key Lime, but it seemed to have more graham cracker than lime.  My second choice--Crème Brulee--was much better.  One of Julie's choices was the tiramisu, which she did not like--one taste told me why--it was made with very strong expresso and Julie does not like coffee.  I found it delicious.  One of TR's was blueberries in lemon curd.  I had gone with the key lime thinking it would have more flavor--wrong-o.  That lemon curd was wonderfully rich and tart--just like I like it.  Fabulous.

We decided next time, we will just get appetizers and desserts....and maybe leave not quite so full.
