Helloo Nadia!

As part of our 5th anniversary celebs, we are returning to the place where A and I had our first serious serious date. As everybody knows, we met on match.com the week before Thanksgiving, 2003. After IM'ing a back and forth over a few days, days during which A's "space" key was spacing out -utter hilarity of the nerdly kind ensued- we met for coffee at Michelangelo's, on State St. Although it was not planned, we ended up going to La Paella (since deceased) for dinner. And then, just to show you what nerds can do when they get their dander up, we ended the night at the Plaza Tavern, home of the most massively over-hyped burger on the planet. It was a good date.
Then, on the weekend following Thanksgiving, I took her on a proper date, the details of which escape me; but we ended the night at Nadia's, me drinking single malt, A sportingly putting up with my peat-infused ramblings, setting a pattern for our relationship that persists to this day.
So, it's to Nadia's that we return tonight. It's a little worrying that its last good review was in 2000, but hey. The things we do for love.
