Ken, Patty, Tim and me went to Don Francesco's to try their $35 dine out menu yesterday. For someone like me it was equivalent to the cost of 7 meals. I generally go to a restaurant of this class no more than once a year. Needless to say, I know nothing about food and have no idea what the items on the menu are or how to pronounce them.
The highlight of the night were: me getting laughed at by Ken and Patty for pronouncing gelato "Ga-Lee-Toe" (maybe I should have called them ice cream), Ken paying $20 for parking and Tim throwing a match at Patty's face.
Back to the food. Although the food was generally good last night, the appetizer (shown in the picture above) was definitely the most remarkable though. I have no idea about the names of the items I ordered- just look up their menu online.

I was a rare occasion that I brought my manual focused Takumar 28mm F2.8 out. I knew it'd give me best chances of taking decent pictures. As I expected, it was dark in the restaurant and I did need the 2.8 aperture to get some decently clear pictures. Shake reduction worked great to. As for the post-processing of the pictures, I was reluctant to brighten the pictures too much since the lack of lighting was a part of the mood of the restaurant. But I thought making the pictures would make the food look more delicious? I don't know.
