xoxo, stephanie marie: September Date Night {Barrel & Bacon}

We were too exhausted to celebrate Christian's citizenship on Friday, but Saturday night I told him I'd take him anywhere he wanted to go so we could properly toast his achievement. He picked Barrel & Bacon, a spot in Interbay that is slightly hidden but we've been seeing all over Instagram and have been wanting to try. Because it's not really easy to find if you don't know what you're looking for, the place was pretty empty for a Saturday night {great for us!} and we got there just in time for happy hour so we could take advantage of a few of their popular appetizers before ordering our meals. The menu leans heavy on American comfort food with a Filipino twist and we left stuffed and happy, with C saying it was one of the best meals he's had in a very long time. Mission accomplished!
