Our Own Anniversary

Last Friday the 29th Walter and I celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary. I had to work that day but I took off a little early so we could head down to our favorite restaurant, Bahama Breeze, for a celebratory dinner. Bahama Breeze serves Caribbean food and we always love whatever we order there. Of course we have some favorites (too many!)


Walter loves the Cuban Black Bean Soup and I love to order the Roasted Cuban Bread appetizer. The food was pretty as well as tasty so I took some pictures. But not before digging in, so most of these photos have some pieces missing from the food.


For our entrees Walter ordered the Pan-Seared Salmon with creamy mango butter sauce which came served with yummy cinammon mashed sweet potatoes and green beans. I went for the Seafood Paella. Mmm mmm!


For dessert we shared this incredible Key Lime Pie. Walter is from the South and he loves his key lime pie. He insists this is the best you can get in Seattle. I don't know if you can tell from this photo but this is one HUGE hunk of pie.


Fortunately for our tummies we brought home some leftovers. The portions are not skimpy there and certainly there was more than we could eat in one sitting.

Not only does Bahama Breeze serve delicious Caribbean food but their decor and landscaping serve a tropical feast for the eyes. As we headed back to our car I took a few photos of the landscape plantings. If you would like to see them you can check out a slideshow here.

In addition to the dinner out as our celebration we also plan a day or two visit to the coast a little later this month.
