Six Months

A busy day at work, and had to run an errand for D.'s sister, so only enough time to grab some take away sushi at 3 o'clock to eat at my desk. After work met up with a bunch of friends at The Basement to see Four Play, a string quartet that covers the Beastie Boys. We got ourselves a table in front of the stage and ordered some food. D. had Lobster Ravioli, which was absolutely delicious, while I had a salad of Rocket, Pear and deep-fried, crumbed artichoke halves, which were surprisingly delicious. The contrasting textures and the slippery segments of the artichokes were an interesting disovery! The mains weren't so nice... my Osso Bucco with sweet potato mash was workmanlike, as was D.'s rissotto with prosciutto-stuffed chicken fillets. A cheese platter to snack on while drinking beer (Bohemian Pilsner) and watching the show got things back on track. A great night out with good friends... who could ask for more?
