My roommate's (Bianka's) mom came into town for Thanksgiving. Somehow we managed to make it a tradition that the parents who visit take us out to dinner - talk about a good tradition! ;)
Since we don't have a lot of money, we get to go all out and eat somewhere really nice that we couldn't afford on our own!
Bianka and I made a bucket list of restaurants we want to try eventually. So, after glancing over the list we decided to try Villa Blanca on Wednesday night. Now...if you've ever watched The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, then you know Villa Blanca is one of Lisa Vanderpump's restaurants. Being the avid housewives viewers that we are, we thought we might as well try out her restaurant. And who knows...maybe we'll even see some people from the show?
And that we did! Lisa's daughter Pandora and her new husband Jason were working there that night. Who would have thought?! Overall, the meal was excellent. I loved the bread with the olive tapenade, and every dish I tried (the seared tuna and the lamb chops) I loved!! So yummy!
After dinner we drove down Rodeo Drive to get a glimpse of the holiday decorated stores. Gorgeous!
So thank you Bianka's mom for treating us to such a lovely dinner and memorable night! Maybe one day, we'll be able to repay our parents for everything they've done for us over the years - I definitely see some nice dinners in our future haha!
Always have faith!!
