So, I had this list of things I wanted to do and places I wanted to visit one last time before I left. And most of it I’ve covered. A couple weeks ago Tien said “Peter Luger’s isn’t on that list, but it should be. I’m making us reservations!” and he did. And I’m so glad! I don’t think anyone who’s been there would dispute that it’s the best steakhouse in New York. It’s been voted #1 by Zagat’s every year since at least 1986. The food was so delicious. For starters we had shrimp cocktail and the onion and tomato plate. Then we had medium rare steak for 3 and medium steak for 2. For sides we had German fried potatoes, creamed spinach and fries… then dessert, of course! Key lime pie and a fudge sundae to split. Oh, and our waiter Stanley was this cute old man. Efficient, but nice.

Jeannette, Yvan, Tien, and Jess surprised me with a few New Yorkish going away gifts too. Some tumblers with the subway lines, a magnet that is an old subway token, a New York neighborhoodie, and some hot pink boy-cut panties that say rachelleb.com on the back!! Totally unexpected! Thank you for everything, guys! I will miss you dearly!
