Dinner [Friday night], Edition II.

There's a new restaurant in town. Well, new to us anyway. Seasons 52 has been getting a lot of buzz around here. We ventured out Friday night to see what all the fuss was about.

Sis made reservations for a 7:30 dinner. But, things looked busy when we arrived. So busy, in fact, that the restaurant wasn't able to seat us until 7:50.
We were hungry, but honestly it was no real sweat.

Once we were seated the restaurant's General Manager came flying over to our table and profusely apologized for the wait. He had taken the liberty to order some complimentary appetizers for our group. Just when he thought he'd probably outdone himself, Mom tapped him on the arm and said, "How 'bout a free bottle of wine to go with that?"

So we got a free bottle of Chardonnay, too.

We feasted on delicious flatbread, shrimp stuffed mushrooms, chicken salad with roasted butternut squash, penne pasta, and caramelized sea scallops. Maybe the best part of this fun restaurant is that no dish is over 475 calories! Healthy, delicious, and portion appropriate.

At the end of the meal our waiter brought us complimentary desserts. What on earth?!

Think it's easy to admit we'll definitely be back again!


Here's our group: moments before being rolled out of the restaurant from an overabundance of food.



And this is neither here nor there, but here's a photo of Saturday's spectacular sunset over the Potomac River. Virginia is on the left. Maryland is on the right.
Geographically speaking, of course.
If we're talking politically I might need to amend that statement.
 


Happy Monday!
