It was a nice walk and when we got inside there was a line at the elevator (which was annoying because I really had to go to the restroom) but luckily because we had a reservation we got to cut in line and got right up to the restaurant (ears popping all the way up)
Our table had an amazing view, we were looking out at the new Trump Tower and the Sear's (yes i refuse to call it the Willis tower or whatever it's new name is) and the lake with a whole gaggle of sailboats out, it was really nice.
The food was amazing but for the amount of money we paid, it ought to be! Probably the best thing we ate was our appetizer which was Ahi Tuna Tartare, OMG I could have just eaten a huge plate of that and been happy. It had an avocado, cucumber and some other stuff salad on top and it was just to die for. We had lobster bisque next and all I could think of was the Seinfeld episode yada yada (ya know which one I am talking about? Elaine talking about a date and yada yada over the best part according to George, and she said no I mentioned the bisque...) yea I am weird. That too was really good. For main course Matt got the duck and I got salmon and both were very yummy. We skipped on desert because we wanted to get something down at Navy Pier. All in all it was one of the best meals ever, Matt wants to do there once a year now, we shall see if that happens, but damn it was really good.
We had a nice walk down by the beach back to Navy Pier and walked around and got some yummy roasted nuts (we always have to get some when we are down there), they were having fireworks that night, but we had to head home to relieve my Mom.
It was so nice to get out together and experience something new together and after all that is what marriage is all about. Love you sweetie!
Maybe for our 10 year wedding anniversary we can go back to Maui...hey a girl can hope!
