Do you two have any plans for the evening? We were thinking of checking out a restaurant in the neighborhood. Do you have any suggestions? I know this really nice Italian place. The food is fantastic and the day court is beautiful. I'd recommend giving it a try. Actually, I'm not all that crazy about Italian food. I'm in the mood for something a bit lighter. In that case, I know a great little bistro. They make a really tasty seafood platter. The fish is outstanding. It sounds fantastic, but I'm allergic to seafood, so... Okay, well, let me think. Oh, I know this great little place. It's just a hole in the wall, but they do the most amazing sandwiches. You've gotta give them a try. Ella, you took me there last time I visited and I got food poisoning, remember?
