This evening, we took a stroll through Downtown Mountain View and dined at Xanh Restaurant for their Dinner and Happy Hour specials. Xanh specializes on being a modern take on vietnamese cuisine. That said, their portions might have been a tad small and pricy, their presentation was on point and Xanh Restaurant is no doubt a must go in Castro. The food was outstanding. We ordered ceviche, pork belly, meatballs, rack of lamb, short ribs, and garlic noodles. The meals were mostly on the sweet and savory side. Oh, and we can't forget the drinks. We ordered the lychee martini, the dirty old man, and the xanhgria. The drinks were all nice and sweet. The service was wonderful - the staff is very attentive, caring, even conversed with us at times!

We've learned to take a liking to this movie theatre as for practically the same price as others, you have a bar, the usual over-priced snack goodies and ALSO leather recliners where you reserve your seats at the time of booking! This evening, we decided on watching The Perfect Guy. Which has a take on a typical chick flick with a few twists here and there.

The main actress, Leah (Sanaa Lathan) starts off being in a long term relationship with Dave (Morris Chestnut). However, as the relationship progresses, as Leah desires to settle down and start a family, Dave isn't quite ready - bringing their relationship to a halt. Months later, Leah is dating again as she seems to believe she meets Carter (Michael Ealy), "The Perfect Guy" but things begin to turn awry...fast. Leah cuts the relationship short as soon as she starts noticing the signs of his dark side, however, that doesn't stop him. This movie depicts the story of love, adoration, obsession and what happens when one jumps in to something much too soon. The storyline felt a bit long - which was needed to have the story play out as it did but it was indeed a thrilling one.
