Another Birthday for Dad

Posted in family stuff, food and restaurants at 1:36 pm by Administrator

Yesterday we celebrated my dad’s 79th birthday at the Lobster in Santa Monica.

As usual, I love getting together with my family, and it was especially nice seeing that my dad was really enjoying himself.

I didn’t get pictures of everything, but first there were the appetizers.   Uh yeah, I call those jumbo.

Here’s my dad getting ready for his lobster meal. . . He just got through his soup and salad starter and is now anticipating a nice juicy lobster, heheheh.

And there it is! 2.5 lbs of lobster. . . ummmm

I had their Grilled Australian Barramundi with squash and sauteed spinach.  Oh wow!  Now I will vouch for this dish!  It was absolutely delicious!

There were roasted pumpkin seeds as well on top.  Absolutely yummy.  I highly recommend this dish.

Then there were the desserts.  My aunt and uncle as well as my oldest sister had these.

My other sister had the strawberry parfait.

El brother-in-law had the Tequila lime sorbet.

I refrained from indulging in the desserts, wah. . . As did Brian and my boys.  And lastly, here are a couple more pics of us–mom, dad, me and my sisters.

The pics of my boys are on my sister’s camera, so I don’t have those yet.  But here’s one with Brian and me.

After lunch we walked along the pier.  There was actually a lot to see, so I ended up taking more pictures there.  But I’ll have to share those on another post as there are too many pics already on this one.

Okay!  Now to find more mischief. . .
