Well, you all knew I would be eating on my birthday! A birthday of mine just has to include chocolate. It was decadent. The entire meal was decadent. It was rich and happy.
My mom surprised me by inviting all my siblings. My youngest nieces and nephew were also there.
I am sure that someday I will post on this restaurant again. My pictures just don't do it justice. They are almost all blurry which is partly because of the dim lighting and partly because of the martini.... and champagne.
The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. I fell in love with it when I was looking for a reception venue but they were all booked up. And I didn't get any pictures of it at dinner Sunday. You'll have to check out the Summit House website and browse thru their gallery. I'd like to go back when the Christmas tree is up.
Stop by my post on OCMetblogs and follow it after the jump to see what we ate!
And thank you everyone for your birthday wishes... I just love all you visible and invisible friends.
Oh man, I don't know what that cake thing is but it looks really, really good.

It looks like such a warm and inviting place to have dinner and to top it off with chocolate is the perfect way to celebrate your birthday.

That lovely chocolate sludge pouring down the cake just made me salivate in an obscene way. Your birthday dinner sounded lovely--what a nice surprise to see all your siblings!

Escargot and creme brulee... I could pretty much make a (highly caloric and deeply wrong) meal out of those two things.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a wonderful dinner! :)
That birthday cake looks too good to eat and the sleeping child- oh I could eat 'im up, that is so cute!
ReplyDeleteMMM... Sounds like a lovely birthday. I love the photo of your desert. Glad you had a nice one.
ReplyDeleteHaPPy BiRTHday To YOU. HaPPy BiRTHday To YOU. Sounds like a wonderful meal. Lovin' that cake:)
ReplyDeleteI hope it was the most wonderful birthday ever but the snails...I'm still not sure I could get past the shells to even try it. The rest of the food looked beyond delicious...the cake was heavenly looking.
ReplyDeleteYum! I'd be licking the plate too!
That cake looks lovely, belated Happy Birthday wishes!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear Dandy. Happy birthday to you!! May your year bring you more joy than you can currently imagine.
