We had the greatest weekend celebrating Gregor's birthday. After our family party, we dropped Beck & KC off at their respective sleep overs (thanks Susan & Lisa!) and headed to the Ritz Carlton for a night out in the city (thanks Jeff!)
Once we got settled in our room we headed to dinner at Buddakan and had a fantastic dinner. Here's a recap of what we ate and our personal rating:
- Chili rock shrimp with toasted ginger -- outstanding
- Steamed sole -- very good
- Lobster fried rice -- good
- Charred asparagus with black bean foam -- outstanding
- Charred filet of beef with mustard sauce -- good
- Chili crab & crispy noodles -- very good
- Dessert - Vanilla bean cheesecake with graham cracker ice cream -- outstanding
The restaurant had a great atmosphere. Everything is served family style and is brought out when it's ready. This would be a great place to go with a larger group.
Next, we headed to the Joyce Theater to see Savion Glover perform. SoLo in TiME was a great show! It was right up Gregor's alley - lots of percussion through tap dancing and various instruments, a few songs and very little talking.
It was a fantastic celebration!! We then headed back to the Ritz for the night and had a leisurely breakfast on Sunday before returning back to reality in Brooklyn.
