My birthday weekend was all about eating yummy food and living the city life. Friday started with dinner with a friend at Ole and Saturday featured dinner at another local restaurant, Puritan and Company.
It's been a while since JO and I have eaten, or even gone for drinks, at Puritan and Company. We made sure to make reservations, because Puritan is not the kind of place you can just walk into on a Saturday night and get a table. We got a table against the back wall. I liked the way our table was set up, with the couch seating the curved behind the table, since JO and I could sit next to each other for a change.
Puritan is an upscale restaurant with a causal, relaxed feel. I love the atmosphere. I'm eating some of the best food in the entire city but I never feel out of place or like I might do something wrong. We started with oysters and they were delicious! I also was happy to see a new sparkling rose ont heir menu, priced at only $10. It was very good and I can picture going back just for the rose and oysters. Next, we got the bibb salad. Here's how you know you are at a great restaurant. They take something as simple as bibb lettuce and radishes and make it mouth watering. The ingredients are just so fresh and delicious, and so perfectly prepared as to highlight the natural flavors. I got the chicken and JO got the ragu and both were extremely good.
After dinner we headed into the city to meet up with some friends at City Bar. City Bar was mobbed so we headed over to Brassiere JO for drinks. We got a table in the bar area. It was nice to be out and about with good friends and a perfect way to wrap up my birthday weekend.
