Birthday Eats


The parents left yesterday, and we're back to normal life. As usual, we had a wonderful visit filled with amazing food. There was a trip to Shake Shack, a visually stunning dinner at Morimoto, lunch at my new favorite spot in Long Island City, and my personal favorite, a perfect birthday meal prepared by my dad, which included stuffed squashed, shrimp curry, pumpkin ravioli, venison with huckleberries, and one massive birthday cake from Magnolia Bakery, which I'm currently enjoying for breakfast. Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes!
