He's so cute.

I finally went to Buddakan for the first time (thanks Swati!), and was blown away by the decor on the inside. So obscure from the outside, but as soon as you walk in, it's like this never-ending gorgeous restaurant. My favorite dish was the "Wild Mushroom Chow Fun"--absolutely wonderful. We ordered the "Crying Chocolate" and the "Chocolate Peanut Butter Bombe" for dessert. The ice cream on the desserts was fantastic--coffee on the first and peanut butter on the latter--so good.

When I got home, Ash was already in bed, half asleep, and asked where we had gone. (It was a wives night--no boys allowed on wives night.) When I told him, he mumbled--"Buddakan? That's an oxymoron. On one hand you have Buddha, who was the epitome of non-violence, and then you have Genghis Khan. What a weird name." Then he turned and fell back asleep. He's so cute.
