Abel and I walked up and down the length of 5ta Avenida several times before we finally sat down to the fancy dinner we’d been talking about for months.
We decided to eat at Playasia: a multi-dimensional restaurant with a coy pond and a Buddha statue to greet us as we entered. We climbed a tangle of stairs to reach our secluded table (which sat in a 8x8 open room on stilts and was covered by a thatched roof). A free margarita, which tasted more like poorly concocted cough syrup than a pre-dinner treat, was the first thing on the table, but tasty skewered chicken and orangeade was soon to follow. Coconut shrimp with melon sauce (one of my new favorite things) and fried rice filled our pallets before we noshed on the fried cheesecake balls for dessert. Delightful.
What a lovely night; thank you so much, Abel. And thank you for making me feel so absolutely elegant in my new jewelry. :)
