Last week, I took Erika out to dinner at a restaurant of her choice to celebrate her birthday {traditions!} I sent her a list of some possibilities, and she picked the one I had been hoping she would - Omega Ouzeri on Capitol Hill. I've heard good things from several different people, and since we both love Greek food, we figured we couldn't go wrong. The building is gorgeous - huge two story ceilings with bright white walls and blue accents - you really feel like you're in Greece. Even though it was cold out, we opted for a bottle of white wine to share {it just felt like a white wine kind of place} and since the menu is full of plates meant to be shared, it was right up our alley. We started with the yummiest grilled bread, then shared a fabulous Greek salad {with huge chunks of feta - yum!}, the zucchini fritters, and keftedakia {delicious Greek meatballs}. The place was virtually empty except for a few other diners, so it felt like we had the restaurant all to ourselves for a leisurely and relaxing dinner. I love these little date nights of ours - not only because I get to spend time with one of my favorite ladies, but because we always find some delicious places that I love to go back to :) Happy late birthday Erika!!
