Thanks again guys! For dinner tonight, me and my boo are going to Ruth's Chris steakhouse in downtown San Antonio - I've been to the one in Manhattan, so I'm anxious to see how they'll compare.
BTW, remind me never to read online reviews of anything.
Report back on the dinner, 'mkay?
I'm sure you're all sick of my birthday by now :) I had the filet, he had the ribeye, we shared a side of baked sweet potato (which had a delicious pecan-brown sugar crust!). My filet was a wee bit tough, but cooked perfectly. They brought me a slice of chocolate cake with a little candle in it! And joked that I looked like I was only turning 18 (not much of a compliment when I'm only 23...)
Afterwards, we met up with some friends at the local, and our favorite bartender bought us a round. The was a new bartender she was training, and he was adorably incompetent. At the end of the night while I was closing my tab, she made me this weird flaming cocktail - I had to make a wish, blow it out, then drink the whole thing very quickly. Now I'm feeling sick to my stomach, but very loved. Oh, my beau gave me a bowling ball, which is exactly what I wanted, and it's blue and pink like cotton candy!
