Feeling so fly like a G6

Date night started with some champagne. Love the pink Moet label.
Steaks apparently make me a very happy girl

Hawksmoor known for their steaks and fun cocktails
Pineapple and sage mint julep. Very sweet and sour but delicious
First mistake- eating a red (sour) berry. I should have known they just make the drink look pretty!
The board tells you what they have left. Our reservation was at 9:30 p.m. so a lot had sold out.
silly cow plates

Appetizers:
Crab and samphire salad. Mehhh.. I was too busy salivating over the other dish to really bother w. this one.
Bone marrow. Oh my bahgeebers. So flippin good. The idea of bone marrow is quite frightening but if you can get over that hurdle, it is truly a delicious experience.
Scoop out the marrow and slather it on your perfectly toasted bread. The marrow is so smokey and sweet from the caramelized onions. This whooped some butt on the crab.

Sides:
Mac n cheese.
 Field Mushrooms
Mash and gravy
Half a lobster and rib-eye for T. I totally forgot to take a picture of my filet!! I was too distracted because T's had come out before mine. We were patiently waiting forever a few minutes. I had asked for mine medium but it definitely came out rare. I'm not one to cause a fuss so I just ate it instead of sending it back. Hands down the best steak I've had in London thus far

After dinner, we went dancing at

I was definitely digging the music. T and the DJ had a sort of bromance going on. We were given one too many free drinks.

Morning cocktail:

Ingredients: Skim milk, ice, vanilla yogurt, frozen berries,banana, water, and 1 med carrot. Yum.

Note to headache: please GO AWAY!
