restaurant week.

me and the girls went to aj maxwells for restaurant week, we got a 3 course meal for $35 bucks.  we had read reviews for the place and all of them said to expect to pay at least $100 per person so to get that much food for $35 was a screamin good deal.  appetizer: heirloom tomato salad, main course: dry-aged sirloin with herb truffle butter, side of augratin potatoes and creamed spinach (compliments of the chef), dessert: peach tart with vanilla ice cream.  everything was so good!  we were really impressed with the place because we had heard that when they find out that you're there for restaurant week they don't give you good customer service but the service was EXCELLENT, which is a huge plus in nyc.
i also went to an italian place called centro vinoteca.  it was such a cute place, such cute atmosphere and i had really good service here too.  i got insalata caprese, which was fantastic! parmesan-sage chicken with eggplant caponata and strawberry shortcake for dessert.  the caprese was seriously uh-mazing and the rest of it was so so.  my mom still makes the best shortcake in the world :)


it doesn't look very appetizing but it was really good :)
best thing in my life! i want to be in italy, now :)
