Day 3, part 2--- Citronelle

Wow, I just had the most amazing meal of my life!!!! Citronelle is one of the USA's most high-end restaurants, and definitely the most high-end in DC. We arrived, and it looked like a hotel! While being escorted downstairs, I saw a placard that read, "Jackets required for men." I think it was then that I really realized how fancy this restaurant actually was and how incredibly lucky I was to be eating there. We were seated next to a glowing blue wall (not kidding, not hallucinating), and then a guy with a cup hanging on a string came and talked about the menu, which is quite confusing. Apparently the chef Michel Richard likes to keep people asking questions, which is cool, I guess, but a little confusing for people who don't have the greatest memory because they are sleep deprived. I ordered lobster pasta as an appetizer, steak as a main course, and creme brule as dessert. It was a flat price for the menu, which would explain my fancy decisions. It was sooo good! We didn't get back till midnight, but it was worth it!
