Blue Ginger

The first week in October we were lucky enough to have two sets of fun visitors at the same time!

Bronson (my brother) and Cherie' came to see the sights in Boston and celebrate Cherie's birthday with a fun get-away!

My mom and dad also came and we spent a lovely week with them.

We all met up one evening for dinner at Ming Tsai's restaurant, Blue Ginger. Here, Cherie' shows my personal favorite dish, Sake-Miso Marinated Alaskan Butterfish--
Wasabi Oil, Soy-Lime Syrup and Vegetarian Soba Noodle Sushi

Bronson went with the Lobster:

Garlic-Black Pepper Lobster with Lemongrass Fried Rice -Pea Tendril Salad with Soy-Ginger Vinaigrette

Me and my sister, Cherie!

Happy couple--in part because we were eating such happy food!

And now for the desserts; they were so beautiful; we had to capture them with our new camera (gift from Sony to James) that has a special FOOD setting.
