We had a little party last Wednesday to celebrate Ben's birthday which included opening presents and eating cake (mini dulce de leche trifles to be exact). After the kids were in bed, Ben and I continued the celebration with a date to Rasika, an awesome Indian restaurant in D.C. Their famous palak chaat (crispy fried spinach with tomatoes, tamarind sauce, and yogurt) was just as good as we remembered it from our last visit. Everything else we ate (and we ate a lot) was also delicious and worth the wait (reservations can be hard to come by and we didn't eat until well after 9).
