I bet you're all waiting to hear all about the food. I won't disappoint, trust me.
In terms of friends, I have been truly blessed. I couldn't as for a better group of women to share my life with, they truly are the best. Thanks to them, this was one of the best and most memorable birthdays I have ever had, my mom even joined in, which I thought was really cool.
So, we went to a place called the Train Station. It's exactly what it sounds like. It was an old station converted into a restaurant some years ago. I would say the prices are fair, and the food is delicious. So delicious in fact, that we all had pretty much the same thing. How often does that happen? The only difference was two out of five of us had a different sauce.
You get a full meal at this place, salad, bread, entree, and dessert if you have room for it.
Ok, I'll stop teasing and get on with the food. Our table had a dish which I believe they called; Langostino's with Angel Hair pasta. You had your choice of a sauce: garlic butter or a cream with wine sauce. I had the garlic butter of course since I have this love affair with garlic. It was really good! Not too much garlic (not that I would have cared), and the perfect balance of pasta and langostino's.
Since it was my birthday, I got a free dessert, and that definitely didn't disappoint. Who can pass up Turtle Cheesecake?? Not me. I started a trend that night with the desserts - everyone had one, lol. Not that we can't splurge every once in awhile, because we made the most of it.
I enjoyed that dinner so much that when the family was going to take me out to lunch on Sunday, I picked to go there - bummer that it was closed. Oh well, next time.
I'm going to shamelessly plug this place, I really think people will like it. It has a great atmosphere, even includes a model train that runs above you, the staff was awesome, and the prices were right.
So without anymore delays, here are the pictures.

Oh... I should also mention for my birthday... I had the delicious idea of buying myself an Ice Cream Cake from Dairy Queen... Those things are incredible! Maybe I'll attempt to make one, someday! :)
The cake:
From bottom to top: Chocolate, a layer of chocolate sauce with crunchies, and vanilla... Topped with icing! YUM!
I would say the rainbow design is so fitting. Agree?! Lol.
