Weekend was a blast. really nice room and service, oh and dinner was absolutely fabulous. Rob got this sirloin steak in a mushroom/truffle ragout - very very yummy. And I got this lobster/shrimp medley in a sauce very similar to a cross between vodka cream and lobster bisque - omg so good. And of course I got to have my favorite, *new england clam chowder*. And raw oysters for appetizer. They were so fresh~~ And the most interesting thing of the night was getting a dollop of lemon sorbet between appetizers and main course to "cleanse our palate". Unfortunately it got really dark pretty quick, so we didn't get a good view of the harbor but still dinner made up for that.
Oh and the whirlpool was AMAZING. Mirrored walls surrounding it. nice huh? Hehe except that I put way too much bath gel in it and soon we were drowning in bubbles. We had to empty out the tub and refill, lol~
Oh and on Sunday we stopped by Foxwoods casinos to check it out. I played blackjack for about 30 mins and ended up winning about $35. Hehe~ hey at least it paid for lunch! We spent so much time milling around Foxwoods (it's pretty big) that we didn't have much time to do anything else.
Oh and Rob and I got carded every single time we walked past a guard. I guess we look young...
All in all, a very nice weekend and I'm so glad I finally got to spend some quality time with Rob. Can't wait to go again! (haha yeah right...I can't afford another $280)
Oh, we got full cable channels in our hotel room so guess what we were doing at 2 am to wind down? Erm...haha watching Food Network! The
Iron Chef was on, and this next segment of the show is being hosted in the US. William Shatner was the host for the show~ that guy is so weird. And Michelle Hu? the asian girl from Xmen 2 was on the show as a judge. Except she kept spitting some nonsense about the "texture" and the "mix of flavors" blah blah, said the same thing like 20 times.
And then we watched Date Plate, which is where two guys/girls cook for the girl/guy, who then chooses her/his date depending on which dish she/he likes better. Except both guys in this episode were complete tools. One guy sang something on his banjo I think...and the other was spewing some nonsense about how the girl's reaction is gonna be like the stock market or some crap like that. I felt really sorry for the girl.
