You might remember that I won tickets to the Phoenix Theater's production of "Our Town" by Thornton Wilder. I did a little research and it first played in New Jersey in January of 1938, so it has been around - and quite popular - for many years
This is one of my absolute favorite plays, so I totally lucked out when I won two tickets at Myah and Kylee's "Little Mermaid" musical back in February, I think. Well, Friday night was the night and it was wonderful - even better than I remembered. I invited my friend, Pat, to go along because I know how much she loves the theater. She had never seen it, so she had no expectations whatsoever. Before the play, we went out for dinner and based on a recommendation by Nicole, we went to Postino.
This was my first time at Postino and Pat and I ordered the bruschetta plate - you get to pick four different bruschettas and they come out on a board - they were wonderful! I probably won't get this 100% right, but we chose (1) white bean hummus and tomato, (2) prosciutto, fig and mascarpone cheese (3) fig, pistachio, and ricotta cheese, and (4) apple with brie cheese. Two were a little sweeter and served as our "dessert." They were phenomenal.
Meet Pat. We each ordered a bowl of pasta fagioli soup and it was extremely hearty! I could have gone with a cup of soup, or none at all, however, it was delicious. I would love to find a good recipe for that.
I didn't get a picture of our server, Jenny, but she was so sweet and brought us a COMPLIMENTARY creme brulee to share. I think I ate more than my half. It was so wonderful!
We had such a nice night. It was late when I got home, but it was a lot of fun! I would do it again in a heartbeat.
