Date Night! Rasika and Adams Morgan

I was so excited for our Saturday night date night!  Mark and I looooove Rasika, as does the rest of DC, so I had to make reservations for a reasonable time on a Saturday night two months prior.  Arg! Anyway, I'm a planner and its worth it, so it works for us.  The sitter arrived and we headed off to Rasika's WestEnd location. We had a pre-dinner bev at the bar - I love the bar popcorn and the Rasika cocktail is delightful! - and were lucky enough to snag an outdoor table for dinner.  Usually when we go out, Mark is the King of Ordering and I'm trying to be healthy and my dish is just 'good' and then I have to sneak bites of his when he's not paying attention. On this date, I won the ordering contest!  I had the Andhra Chicken Curry and it was delicious and HOT! The Palak Chaat is heaven and a staple in our Rasika order and the Tawa Baigan is a recent fav.

After dinner, we headed to see a friend's improv show in Adams Morgan.  As we were walking through Dupont, we stumbled upon a Silent Disco in the park.  The crazy thing is that just last week a friend was telling us about wanting to host a Silent Disco at his house and explained the whole thing to us. Basically everyone rocks out to music in headphones and a few music options get provided by the host.  Thanks for keeping us informed Dave!  Otherwise, we would have seen this and been completely confused...........(this looks like people just standing around, but they were all dancing in real life).

As we were walking to Adams Morgan, we tried to guess the last time we had a night out in that area...it seemed like ages!  Over the course of the next four hours, we hit Jack Rose, Millie and Al's, the improv show - shout out to the Wonder Years, Black Squirrel, and ended the night with Jumbo Slice - YES!  Definitely a happy, fancy (just the first half), fun night!
