Last Friday night, hubby and I went out for dinner at a restaurant called "Globe". It was beautiful inside and very adult. There were no families or children as far as I could see. We knew that before we went and were sans enfants. We decided, the evening being beautiful, that we would dine on the patio. It seemed it had a lighter, more casual menu than the main restaurant. There were sandwiches, salads and a build your own charcuterie board. We started with a four item board with two meats and two cheeses. We'd had something similar at the Drake Hotel, which was amazing and huge. This was ok and tiny. The really fun (hysterically funny at the time) item was the honey with the honeycomb. The honeycomb was crumbled up in the honey so you had to eat it. We dubbed it adult wax lips. Couldn't figure out the appeal as a kid, can't as an adult. I then had the lobster blt, which was yummy. Nice big chunks of perfectly cooked lobster, yellow tomatoes and boston lettuce. The atmosphere was good and we had a brilliant time, so all in all a pretty good night. Maybe the full pint of beer before the food showed up helped.
