Mary Jo's B-Day

Mary Jo and Darcy @Littlefork

Saturday night I met up with the KnitGrrlz at Littlefork in Hollywood to celebrate Mary Jo's birthday.      I do love this restaurant.  I was there for brunch in November and really admired  the menu.  Dinner is just as yummy as brunch.  First up, most of the ladies ordered a Thai Town Mule which consists of gin, lime, Thai basil-peppercorn syrup, house ginger beer.

For dinner, we ordered a few small plates to begin:  BEET chopped salad, with crispy rice, herbs, créme fraiche horseradish dressing; loaded potato GNOCCHI with bacon lardon, cheddar, creme fraiche, chives; house smoked brook TROUT, with potato salad, house-made hot sauce; and BRUSSELS SPROUTS with panzanella, red onion, bell pepper, aged balsamic.  For our main dish, Mary Jo and I split the STEAK frites, montreal steak spice butter, maple onion rings, as did Natalie and Darcy.  Brit ordered MONKFISH Française with potato puree, garlic spinach.  Everything was truly yummy.  We will definitely return to Littlefork!

After dinner we moved to Natalie's house for presents and dessert.  Natalie provided a simply divine Dulce de Leche cake from La Monarca Bakery.  

Joe was working at home on Saturday

I do love celebrating our birthdays!  We have such fun!  Happy Birthday, Sweet Mary Jo!
