Today is our 8th Anniversary.
I left work early to get ready for my night out with Chris. Came home and Chris had reservations for an eclectic restaurant in the SE side near Sellwood, featuring nothing but freshly made Pacific NW organic foods as Gabriel and John (Chef/Owners) would put it: Passion & Soul. Here is a sampling of their menu:
Appetizer~
RISOTTO FRITTERS Parmesan and aged cheddar risotto, breaded and deep-fried, served with roasted red pepper dipping sauce
Entree~
GRILLED LAMB SIRLOIN~rubbed with herbs and hazelnuts, plated on a bed of roasted shallots and pears, sauced in pear coulis
Dessert~
CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT CAKE Decadent cocoa sour cream cake made with hazelnut flour and a hint of Frangelico, served warm with vanilla ice cream, topped with housemade caramelized local hazelnuts
If you think this sounds good, check out their Bistro restaurant on my list of links to the upper left of my blog entry.
1st Year Anniversary: Celebrated in a little seaside town: Melbourne beach/Florida with a Spa Package for deux
2nd Year: Went back to the Sundy House & Gardens where we married on October 30, 1999
3rd Year: Celebrated in Miami Beach at a wonderful Seafood restaurant named Joe's Stone Crabs
4th Year: Took a trip to Boston, what a fun trip that was
5th- 7th Year: Who knows! My mind is in a fog. In any case, it's good to at least remember your first years of marriage!
8th Year: A nice quiet dinner at Caprial & John's Bistro Restaurant
