Get the Chorizo

Name: La Merenda Restaurant
Where do I get ? www.lamerenda125.com
Cost: around $50 for table for 2 (wine included)

Why I love it:
I get excited when I find a new (to me) place that has great service, incredible food and a lovely atmosphere. It is the grand slam for me! This casual tapas bar makes me really happy. While out with 3 girlfriends, we tried 9 different items and had a bottle of wine. Our bill was less than $100 not including tip. It was the best food I have had in a very long time, and everything about the service was top notch. Did I mention that Monday nights bottles of wine are 50% off? Go, please.

Wow.

Cost: $10 or so

Why I love it:
I don't go to movies often, and when I shell out money at a theater, it is usually for a movie that has good reviews. This is the best movie and I have been to in a very long time. The acting is brilliant, the plot thickens with every minute and the ending was perfect. Grab someone you like and head off to see this flick. This is one of those movies that you will never forget.
