Adventures in Southeast: Episode 1

So Ali and I had a sort of date slash adventure night on saturday. Our first idea was to stop in at Pok Pok (and Whiskey Soda Lounge) for dinner (apparently they're infamous for a leg of hen - yeah, remember I said adventure), but the wait was a little beyond what our hungry stomachs could handle, so we walked back towards home and tried a place closer to us that we had been eye-ing, called Nuestra Cucina, an upscale mexican restaurant. It was TO. DIE. FOR. Really. I had a steak, and I rarely eat meat, and holy macerole it was worth the splurge. A virgin margarita, some rockfish ceviche, and gratuitous picture taking and cute chef oggling concluded with us almost falling asleep to an Iraq documentary. We live a riveting life, I know. But it was a jolly night, with lots of walking, a 'lets get cute' attitude, and who can ever get tired of mexican food? NOT US.
