Fancy Dining

My friend and I are always eating out. We cannot cook for the life of us, and we always have cravings for delicious food. I don't want to say we a are a food snob (we try to get the best foods for cheap), but we can really be critical of what we eat. We enjoy most food, but there are some things we rather not have.

We are addicted to a place that we just discovered at the Orange Circle. Byblos anyone? It is a little tiny Mediterranean restaurant with amazing humus, and it currently our go to place for meals.

Last night we decided to go have dinner there, but it was closed when we got there. Why do half the restaurant in the Orange Circle close so early? What restaurant is closed by 6? How my heart ached.

There was nothing left for us to do, but to walk around and just randomly walk into a restaurant. We didn't really have any particular cravings.

Wandering down the street we decided to walk into this random restaurant. It was called the Citrus City Grille. There was a a sign that stated that everything was 50% off that day. Ummm... I love bargains, and I love food. What a winning combination!

When we walked into the restaurant, we realized how under dressed we were. Why is everyone wearing business attire? Why do I stick out like a sore thumb? That was when I saw the menu. Fancy food with prices that I could never afford? Thank goodness it was 50% off.

When we were seated, we both decided to order a pasta dish. Carbs is our friend not our enemy. In the middle of our meal, the light started to dim. It was romantic I admit, and my friend and I both ended up giggling. That's what happens when you have two girls that are extremely easily amused. We end up giggling when the lights dim, when we realize we don't know which utensil to use for each course. (Such hopeless girls we are.)

Our food was lovely, and I really had a nice experience. My friend and I never go anywhere fancy, and it was nice to actually do something out of the ordinary. I love random events that end well. It makes me smile when I think back to that little romantic dinner. :)
