Saturday night out...

This Saturday was a long long day. I had to work at the barn till around 4 pm and after that all the fun began. Philip met me at work and as we headed to Express down the street we saw JeNeva in her GC car driving down North Avenue. She was to have met us at the barn and was running late. We dashed towards her as traffic was stalled and jumped in her car. We headed to Cafe BaBaReeba, a hot spot Tapas restaurant in Lincoln Park for dinner. Between the three of us we ordered nine tapas entrees to share of which some of the best were: Salmon and Scallop Ceviche, Goat Cheese in tomato sauce, Skewered Chicken and Chorizo, Chicken with goat cheese and Braised Salmon. We also got mini tapas desserts of flan, rice pudding, and tres leches chocolate cake. The meal was incredible and great fun. We headed back to my apartment and hung out with JeNeva till around 9:30 pm. After JeNeva left, Philip's housemates and visitors from Goshen began arriving. We kicked off the evening at Bar on Buena down the street from my building and then walked 10 blocks south to go to Berlin so that the crowd could get their fulfillment of late night dancing. Darrin and Hector from work met us there and we all had a great time. Most of the Hyde Park crew left at around 2:15. Hector, Darrin, Phil, and I left a little later and headed north in search of food, mainly at my request. For some reason we went into Nookies, a late night diner and sat down. We realized that we really did not want to be there so we got up and left. We told the waiter, but I think he felt bad:( We ended up at some taco joint and got some yummy late night snacks. Darrin and Hector went their own ways and Philip and I caught a cab home. I don't know what time it was, but it was very late.
