Another Day...Another Wish to Make

As promised, here is a photo-journal of today's birthday brunch with Leslie @ Colicchio & Sons. Located on 10th Ave between 15th & 16th Street, it is beautifully appointed in dark wood & steel. As we walked in and was greeted by the hostess who looked up our reservation, she immediately wished me a Happy Birthday! And so it went...from the wait-staff to the manager, Chase who stopped by - all wishing me a Happy Birthday! Since I love the attention, this was right up my alley! LOL



I ordered the "Taleggio, Prosciutto, Onion and Sofrito Pizza" while Leslie went with the "Goat Cheese & Mushroom Omelet" - replacing the cheese with oven roasted tomatoes since Leslie has given up dairy, sugar & gluten...and it's working having lost 20 lbs!

My Pizza:


Leslie's omelet with side of wood-roasted potatoes:


I had coffee and she had tea. The "bread" item were mini banana & chocolate chip muffins. All so good! I shouldn't have but since Leslie wasn't partaking...I ate her's (they were so tiny!!) :-)


My pizza was cheesy with a sharp pungent flavor...delicious and I cleaned the plate.

At the end of the meal, I was surprised by this: I LOVED it...more importantly...they spelled my name correctly! ;-)





After much careful thought...I blew out my candle. I took my "wish-making" very seriously!

Afterwards, we meandered through Chelsea Market which is located right across the street, stopping at most of the vendors particularly "Artist & Flea" - an upscale type of flea market that had lovely vintage dresses and jewelry.

Then we strolled along the High Line, finding a bench with a great view to relax and chat some more before snapping a pic together to commemorate our awesome day!
(Leslie, who had her hair cut yesterday into a pixie, looked adorable...very becoming!)
