Oriental East and Caribou: Birthday Dinner

Sisters Eating Chinese

Chris and Andrea

My sister came to town for my birthday (and for business, too) and stayed at a hotel in Bethesda. My friend Synthia recommended this Chinese restaurant near the hotel which we liked very much. The food was marvelous.

Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows

After dinner we went next door to Caribou (Minnesota's answer to Starbuck's). The atmosphere was so cozy and warm and toasty and it reminded Snooks so much of her birthplace that she ordered hot chocolate (although it was July and 95 degrees in the shade just outside the door).
