Boat Street Cafe

Tonight the parents embarked on a long awaited culinary adventure to the Boat Street Cafe. While they were out frolicking in their foie-gras and such, I was comfortably at home in the company of one Mrs. Silver Wheatley (nee Silver Galloway). She had been on a 10 day wedding/honeymoon get away and will sadly not be returning to ELDC, so it was great to see her.

The parents were quite taken by all of the intimate charm that Boat Street has to offer. There was al fresco dining available in the cute courtyard and the entire restaurant was opened up to the outside, providing a nice evening breeze.

Apparently their server was amazing and recommended great wine in addition to an interesting substitution for Daddy's dish. In fact, all of the servers kept coming to their table as if they were fighting over them. Hee hee.
