Met an old friend for an early dinner here on a week night. The sushi selection was quite impressive, but the quality was not up to par. Not bad by any means, but not the freshest. I will go back and try other things, but as for now I am not wowed. Also the service was quite slow, and they were not busy at all when we were there. I would also like to go and hang out in the downstairs bar sometime soon......

I had the best Tex-Mex brunch at Trudy's that I have ever had in my life. I don't remember what I ordered, but I'll describe it. The bottom layer consisted of spicy black beans, peppers and onions seasoned perfectly. On top of that was a crispy tortilla.... Then two fried eggs with runny yolks. As if that weren't enough, fresh, thinly sliced ham topped the eggs and there was a mild salsa drenching that! Just, order that. My Mom gobbled up the benedict and the service was great.

Little Baobab is a small restaurant that turns into a nightclub after 10pm. They clear out the tables and stools - even with you still on it - at 10pm, like clockwork, and start the music. I love the atmosphere here. You can come in early for drinks and appetizers at the bar or sit down for dinner. It's small and intimate. I've stayed long enough to see them turn it into a nightclub, but wasn't able to stay for some dancing. I get the vibe that this would be a fun place to get your dance on and will definitely be back to do so! The food and drinks were an orgasm in my mouth. They serve West African Senegalese food. I keep telling myself to try something new, but I always go back for more Mafe with chicken over couscous. Peanut sauce, couscous, chicken that falls off the bones - what more could I ask for! I always lick my plate clean and wish there was more, even though the portions are reasonably sized and I do leave satisfied. Definitely order one of their cocktails. They have things like ginger, orange, whiskey or hibiscus margaritas. The tamarind margarita tastes like a regular margarita, but it's still delicious! I take all of my out of town friends here and they all love it too.
