Best Birthday Ever! Part 3

After leaving Dogmatic, it was time to head towards Chinatown! We took the scenic route, meaning we walked. Along the way, we stopped at a little chain called Le Pain Quotidien. It's a French bakery, basically, but you sit at a big table with others.

Next, we made it to Chinatown, made a visit to the Mahayana Buddhist Temple, then hopped on the train for Brooklyn to eat Tibetan food.

I was so excited about the food, that I forgot to take pictures, lol. Suffice to say, we ate until there was no room-- spicy goodness of momos, potatoes, all kinds of other delicious things.Then it was back to Manhattan, home for a rest, then out for the evening!

I chose a little place called Don't Tell Mama. It's a combination restaurant, piano bar and cabaret theater. It's a little down off the street, cozy, dark, and everything you'd think a piano bar/cabaret theater should be. The people were friendly, the music was good and it was neither too crowded nor completely empty.

Unfortunately, I didn't get any great pictures, but we are going back to see a show in their cabaret theater.

After a few drinks (probably one too many, lol) and a trip to a little diner, it was time to go back home and rest after such a long day. It couldn't have been better! Thank you, dear friends who made it possible!
