VIP Dinner

Erin and I had the opportunity to attend a VIP dinner at a restaurant that my company, Clark, just finished building. The restaurant is called the Monterey Bay Fish Grotto and is a really cool space ... we even got to dine in their wine room, the best private room in the restaurant.


The night began by spending a good hour in the bar. Rumor had it that the Lerner’s (family that bought the Washington Nationals) and Daniel Snyder (owner of the Washington Redskins) were in attendance as well, so we were all on the lookout but never did catch a glimpse. The dinner lasted about 3 hours and we were treated to charbroiled shrimp, crab meat and tuna steak for appetizers and then we both chose swordfish with fresh crab meat and asparagus.


To top it off, Erin had a chocolate latte for dessert while I had my favorite dessert, crème brule. And, of course, since we were surrounded by many bottles of wine, we had to partake in a few good ones ... all in all, it was an excellent dinner (and free which was the best part!) and everyone had a great time.
