After 49 dinners, we have a clear #1 choice for best dinner…and we’re live blogging it!

We just ordered and locked on the 7 course chef’s tasting.

The drinks have arrived!

Course 3: Soft Shell Crab

A little disappointing. Really good peas…good enough that Ian is a future vegetarian.!

#49: Senate

If the grease doesn’t kill you, a hot dog may!

In spite of several less than glowing recos, we decided to make the trip to Senate for our 49th FDWC outing.

The evening started off well with a nice drink list and several intriguing starters. Of the 5 diners (Maggie was out sick), a ‘super-majority’ started with the “My Wife’s Salad” and all agreed it was one of the best they had at a FWDC event. Kyle had the Egg and Bacon Salad which was also excellent.

The shared starters also fared well.
