Last night, BK offered Chris and 2 complimentary tickets to the Joffrey Ballet's spring performance. I have never been to the ballet before and wasn't sure what to expect but Chris and I both LOVED the show. The evening consisted of 4 performances and we both truly enjoyed each one. Those women are so tiny, muscular and flexible!!!
I just watched them amazed as they stretched their bodies into long, lean poses. And how they floated across stage, with such grace, it was truly breathtaking.
After the show, we headed to Swirl Winebar on Hubbard St. (downtown Chicago). BK's wife, Stephanie, is a flaminco dancer there.
Swirl is the type of place I typically would not visit, as it appears pretty swank and trendy from the outside. But Chris and I were both impressed with their menu. We shared a bottle of Malbec wine and nibbled on empinadas and toasted goat cheese and pesto on crisp flat bread.
Swirl Wine Bar food: 5 out of 5 spoons
