Free Time isn't exactly flowing, but every now and then when I have a spare moment online I like to enter a contest or two. I am born under the zodiac sign of Aries and we tend to be 'risk takers' at heart.
Well my gamble paid off with a local radio station contest win for Sunday Brunch at Theos Restaurant and Oyster Bar in the Trump Plaza in Manhattan!
Above: I couldn't resist nabbing a shot of the custom menu and place holders at the table!
Above: 'La Dolce Vita' Specialty Cocktail: Prosecco, Pom Juice and House Infused Dolce Mix and Pom Seed (Let's face it, what's Brunch without Bubbles?) A #Pomsecco (yes I am going to make a 'thing')
Above: There were sweet parting gifts too! Decisions, Decisions on the menu!
Above: Lobster Bisque one of the choices for Course One of this Three Course Prix-Fixe Tasting Menu
Above: Lobster Citrus Salad was my choice for Course One with bits of Avocado and lemongrass
Above: Maine Lobster Benedict was one of the choices for Course 2!
Above: My Choice for Course 2 was the Steak and Eggs!
Above: Sadly they were out of my dessert choice by the time they got to me, and didn't have any alternates so this is pretty much fruit and whip cream but I can't get mad at it.
Above: The chef came out to take a photo with the Radio Station Personalities Todd and Jayde and the WPLJ Blown Off Brunch Contest Winners! Can you spot the butterfly? :)
I am never totally Wordless on 'Wordless Wednesday' but it is photo heavy, that counts right?
