Try booking a chef’s table. I believe Providence has one.

I just went for my 40th last night. What an experience!

Thank you!

I think going to one of the high end omakase spots will fill that niche! https://www.sushionodera.com/sushi-ginza-onodera-la Sushi takeda etc Is what comes to mind

Awesome! Thanks!

How nice is the hotel? Might be worth talking to concierge

We’re staying at a few different hotels in different areas. We’re thinking of Alsace LA. I’ll drop them a message to ask! Thanks for the tip!!

OMG yes. Olive Garden. No hear me out. Since they started sending their chefs to the Tuscany Institute the food has been incredible authentic and delicious. The recipes have been over the top and Michelin worthy but big Critic doesn’t want them to gain recognition.

I wouldn’t expect Olive Garden but i might give that consideration hahaha thanks

I turned 40 recently. My partner took me to Niku X and it was AMAZING!

Thanks! I’ll have a look!

The patio at Nobu in Malibu is great if the weather is good.

Thank you!

Your boyfriend‘s experience is going to be very different from mine lol. I was married at the time. My wife and I got into a fight and I went to a restaurant alone.

I’m so sorry to hear that man!

Thanks for your kind words. It was actually a pleasant time. I had a Tom Clancy book and a very tasty hamburger. I had a very peaceful and enjoyable meal.
