Lena and Company's Weekend of Fun!

SOOOOO, my friend from vet school is getting married in June and we went to Atlanta for the weekend. Despite the HORRORS of shopping (sorry girls, I am not a clothes shopper!), I had a wonderful time with them and we got to eat some GOOD food. Our first restaurant was Desta, and Ethiopian restaurant. My meal was Fish Doulet

It was Tilapia and chickpeas and some other stuff I'm sure. Unfortunately, most of what I tasted was SPICY! I love spicy food but this was incredibly spicy! I did try Nicole's dish (she ate beef while the other mean people ate little lambies) and that was very good. Note to self, try THAT dish next time.


Looks yummy right? The bread was really good - very spongy and handy to "sop up" the food. We did have a fabulous dessert, even more fabulous because it was free!!
If I could eat this every day, I would. It was this almost crackery thing on the bottom that was soft and sweet and then the banana on top - I love me some fresh bananas and these were fantastic!  All in all, a nice dinner.

We ate at Maggiano's the next night. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of my meal even though it was fabulous. I'm hoping to start my tour of the 100 dishes in Charlotte tomorrow, so stay tuned!
