Saturday Dinner

We tried a new restaurant called West Town Tavern. If you live in Chicago or are ever here, you should try it. The place is really cute, with hardwood floors and exposed brick walls. They have a lot of interesting beer selections (you will not get a Bud there) and wine. The four of us split mussels and shrimp spring rolls for appetizers. Jeff and Tim got the duck with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Susanna got the salmon. I got the lamb on cous cous. Everything was so yummy! We all tried each other's food. Then for dessert Susanna and Jeff split the apple-raspberry crisp with caramel ice cream. That was good. I had a piece of chocolate cake with a small scoop of chocolate chip ice cream. Tim got this rasperry infusion stuff that was so good. It was some kind of after dinner drink. It was so sweet and yummy that I wanted to get more and make popsicles out of it. Very good! I highly, highly recommend this place.
