Lupo Restaurant

I closed a big ass million dollar private deal and got a nice pay cheque for doing so. So I did what every individual would do...... take their man on a date. :o) Rob was telling me a long time ago about a restaurant that he really liked, Villa Del Lupo. They went under some reno's and a name change as it's now called Lupo Restaurant. Anyway, we've been wanting to try this restaurant (or any restaurant really) but we've pretty much have been broke and on a tight budget (paying for two places is a little expensive). So I made a reso for 8:00pm last night and it was amazing!!!

Rob had a bass lesson so he was out of the house until 7:45pm which was nice because after my run I could properly get ready for my date without him being around!!!! So he showed up at 7:45 looking very handsome and off we went to find a cab. When we did, he opened the door for me (true gentleman). We arrived at the restaurant and it was soooooo nice. If you haven't been there before, it's a charming little heritage house on Hamilton Street. We were greeted by a lovely young lady that showed us to our table. Even though it was in the middle of the room, we didn't feel like we were on the spot. It was quiet and romantic. After we settled into our chairs Rob took out his phone and said "I'm turning it off. First time for everything." and OMG he did!!!!

We started off by sharing the meatball appetizer. Holy cow delicious. Four big meatballs in a polenta Gorgonzola cheese sauce that was absolutely delicious. For the main course, Rob got Lamb Osso Bucco and I got the Lamb Sirloin grilled to a perfect medium rare. Both our meals were fantastic. We did get a bottle of wine that we actually have at home but haven't tried yet. We bought our bottle when we went to Vegas so it was exciting to have it. And let me tell you....amazing.

After dinner we sipped some grappa and shared the Grand Marnier Creme Brulee. Tasty tasty tasty. It was positively an amazing date night. It was perfect and I couldn't think of a better way of celebrating my big pay cheque then having the best date with my man. We topped the evening off by snuggling in bed, playing Call of Duty: Black Ops and killing people around the world.
