Ninja New York

For Andres's birthday Saturday night, I took him to Ninja New York. This was my 2nd time there, but Andres's first. Basically the whole staff is dressed up as a ninja, and they do surprise attack guests every now and then while you're there. They jump out at you once you enter, and you have a choice of going in the easy way (just heading straight to your table) or going through a dark passageway (which is definitely more fun!).
Also, if you order something on the menu with a ninja star next to it, it comes with some sort of "show" - whether it is lit on fire, you get to pull out a sword, or something that has to do with the entree.
Andres ordered the Sasuke course dinner which is a set meal that includes batto jutsu (duck pate w/ house mustard, shrimp, ceviche & salad), a combo of spicy tuna & shrimp tempura rolls, miso salmon, angus ribeye steak, and he ordered the ninja star chocolate mousse cake for dessert. I ordered from the ala carte menu & ordered the caesar salad, steak in a box, spicy tuna roll, and the rose chocolate mousse for dessert.

For his dessert, I spoke with our waiter ahead of time & we surprised him with a birthday candle and a surprise ninja attack, haha.

For fun, I also bought him a ninja star lol. It's rubber but still a cool toy. I didn't get a good picture of it, but below is me with our awesome waiter, Bobby.

Storytelling in 30 Photos: 1


Krysten from After I Do discovered Storytelling in 30 Photos from SrslyLiz, and I thought it would be fun to do as well :) Although, for a couple of the things like "11. a person i can tell everything to and 19. someone who is always there", I can pretty much picture the same person. So I've meshed together some of those & added a couple of new ones. Going to try to post this every Wednesday!

Okay, first up:
1. someone i spend a lot of time with
I spend a lot of time with my lovely boyfriend, Andres. It may sound cheesy but he is my best friend; I'm free and comfortable to be truly myself around him. Some of my best memories are with him :) (We've been dating for about 2 years and 5 months now.) Above, is one of my favorite pictures of him. It was taken about two summers ago at one of the docks at South Street Seaport - one of my favorite places to be in the summer here in New York City.
