Cajun butter lobster

I was hungry one night and bought a few lobster tails and decided to make what you see below

I got a bunch of butter and threw in a few seasons, refrigerated it and then slapped it onto the lobster and baked it for 20 minutes... what came out was seafood gold!

Along with that I also had made saffron rice (from scratch) with quinoa together... Yes I added the two in the same pot!! 

I will make this dish again and next time record the seasons I added :)

Pintxo y Tapas (Bday Dinner #2)

This place was nice, but the service was not the greatest...

Paella Marinera$29.95

Clams, mussels, shrimp, scallops and lobster in saffron rice

My Hubby got this and it was really good. The mini Lobsters int his dis was so delicious. I loved the extra saffron taste in the rice... 

The waiter was horrible, he gave us a weird plate of veggies... It tasted good but It better not be on the bill!

Crepe de Txangurro $9.95

Crepes filled with crabmeat in piquillo pepper sauce

These crepes were delicious.. sad that it was so light and left you wanting more...

Salmon Relleno$25.95

De Cangrejo Al Vino

Salmon stuffed with crabmeat in wine sauce – allow 30 minutes for preparation

This was worth the wait... The sauce was really nice and light and the saffron rice from Hubby's dish made this even more delicious!!

I would like to go back but just to chill at the bar, we had a lot of issues in the dinning room, but the food was good enough to stay... We had sangria but I forgot to take a picture...

Company Dinner!!!

Rabo de Lagosta (16oz) Grelhado

Grilled Lobster Tail (16oz)

This has got to be one of the freshest Lobster tails I've ever had in my life.

The Rice was delicious, the Clarified butter was amazing and the home fried potato chips were out of this world!!!

The veggies tasted like they came from a fresh garden, I mean common it was just an excellent dish

My co-workers ate all of the Meat that was passed around. I can't vouch for any of it but they looked good. The place got packed really quickly!

I would Highly recommend this place to any one for any occasion!!!

ANDIAMO RESTAURANT

A perfect day came to a perfect night. After the Garrison cafe, I didn't know if we'd find another great spot and I was wrong!

Here we have the toasted bread with the house made oil concoction. The concoction was delicious. It had nothing but spicy herbs and vegetables, I wanted a bottle of that stuff. Luckily they kept bringing more delicious bread so I was good! 

The special appetizer for the night was a seared scallop with bok choy and garlic. It was out of this world. This is a picture of half of the Portion served. It's not enough for an appetizer to share, but we will be back for that!! The bok choy was seasoned really well and the scallops were cooked to perfection... Why tease us with such a small portion!!! Next time we know to order two of those!

Here's a salad that comes with the main entree's. It had blue cheese (not a fan) and a balsamic vinaigrette drizzled on it. I could have done without the salad. BF loved it.... 

to each is own I say

Red wine.. no I don't recall the name or the type... but it was a perfect glass to end a perfect day upstate New York. I can't wait to go back up there!!

Lobster Ravioli with Chardonnay wine sun-dried tomato cream…22.95 This was a really well executed lobster ravioli. Most places you can kind of taste if it was home made or not, and this place knocked it right out of the park for me. What I also liked was the chunks of lobster, they didn't shred it too much and add any fillers... Well worth a try I kid you not!!

This was a seafood pasta made on the fly... BF couldn't decide what he wanted, so the waiter suggested the chef make this. It was made really well... a little heavy on the garlic but still a really good fresh seafood dish. Couldn't ask for more.

We should have ended with desert but we were too full and had to head back to the city. All in All this was a great place to stumble upon. Great waiter, amazing food, and good prices. 

Go check them out if your in the area!!!

Fogo De Chao ( bachelorette dinner)

Oh what an amazing Dinner this was!!! 

Please excuse the pictures in this post... I was more hungry than I was interested in getting pictures... 

These bread things here were amazing... I had no idea what they were called... but I kept stuffing my face with them! 

I loved how the men came with the meat and served you a sliver of what ever it was you wanted. A great way to try things and not have to be obligated to eat everything!

This was steak... Don't recall which kind but it was really good!

There was sausage and Wings Galore!!!

The sides they had kept coming at the table... I was really excited about the fried polenta and the sweet plantains... didn't care much about the mash potatoes.
