On Friday, Josh and I went to see Death Cab for Cutie in the city and decided that we should go out to dinner beforehand. When we were in Hawaii a few years ago we accidentally ended up at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Oahu. I loved it for one reason alone: they serve steaks cooked in butter. Ever since I found out that there's a Ruth's Chris in Portland, I wanted to go. Then Josh and I accidentally walked past it on our way to a movie, so it was in my mind when thinking of somewhere to eat.
I put Josh in charge of making reservations, which you can do online. When we arrived, they greeted us at the door with "congratulations on your internship!", which totally confused me. Apparently Josh had written in the "special notes" section of the online reservation that we were celebrating my internship. They led us to a table covered in this confetti:
The service was wonderful. I'm sure it would have been anyway, but they asked me questions about my internship and were attentive the entire night. We ate a lot.
I am super in love with wedge salad with dressing on the side
The wonderful steak served in butter
The best part was that, since we were celebrating (and probably because we ordered a lot of food), they gave us a little dessert sampler for free.
They spelled out "good luck" in chocolate. I promised Josh I wouldn't lick the plate.
I highly recommend Ruth's Chris, though it's a bit expensive. We had a great time and the service was excellent.
Oh, yeah, and the concert was okay too.
Josh and I meowed along to the songs, which is exactly what it sounds like
