Date night

Greg's birthday falls exactly two weeks before mine and it has become a tradition to have fancier than usual night out to celebrate, just the two of us.  This year, we selected Eola, a lovely little restaurant in townhouse on P Street, just off Dupont Circle.  Dinner was spectacular and we both agreed that this restaurant deserves to be far busier and well known, although it made us happy to be able to grab a table so easily. 

One of the most interesting things that I tasted last night was actually a cocktail called the Southern Belle, which combined peaches, bourbon, St. Germain and prosecco.  I would never have thought to combine bourbon and prosecco, but it was actually quite delightful and definitely got the night off to a celebratory start.  All in all, between the cozy atmosphere, delicious food, fun cocktails and fantastic company, it was the perfect date night.  We will definitely be back!


My dashing date

We have friends coming into town tomorrow so we're looking forward to another great summer weekend filled with brunch, warm weather and a dose of America's favorite pastime at the Nats-Phillies game.  Happy Friday everyone and have a great weekend!
