Day 7: Downtown Treats

Today on our journey through downtown we got to stop at two great restaurants within a stones throw of each other (and walking distance to our condo).

The first was The Black Olive for lunch.  We LOVED this restaurant.  Not one bad thing to say… in fact our mouths are still watering.  Our waitress Jessica suggested we try the Lasagna and NY Strip Frittes, and she suggested right!  The lasagna comes wrapped almost like sushi with a crusty shell, and the steak was juicy and earthy, smothered with caramelized onions.  We’re trying not to eat TOO much while we’re here b/c

we get to eat so many tasty treats that we’re afraid we’ll be 67 pounds heavier by the time we leave, but we couldn’t help but clear our plates.  It may have been raining outside, but we were happy as clams as we devoured every bite!

After taking a tour of downtown and meeting the Mayor (being Smile Ambassadors has its perks) we got to wind down at “Wine Down Wednesdays” at Urban Flats.  If you’re looking for a deal, this is it!  After 5 on Wednesdays for $20 you get unlimited glasses of wine and food!  Are you kidding me?!  Every Wednesday almost 500 people will walk through the doors to end their busy work day right.  They specialize in homemade flat bread, and every slice was like a piece of art… that you get to eat.  The food was excellent and the wine was the perfect way to end a great day downtown.
