Tonight my friend Emory and I went to dinner at Zeus (which I've blogged about at least a time or two! It's my favorite!!) Weeknight dinners out are rarely worth mentioning but this one will definitely go down in my books as one of my most entertaining meals ever!! Emory meets no strangers, so she's good at keeping up with the 'friendliness' of our dear servers at Zeus. Tonight, we had the good fortune to meet Nidal, the owner...and just to let you know, WE are family now! ha! He sat us at a table in the back--near the kitchen--where 'the family' sits and he checked on us throughout our meal to flirt with us and make sure we were doing well. Eventually, he came over to check on us and proceeded to sit down and visit with us for probably thirty minutes or maybe more! It was a very interesting conversation ranging from a mini-lesson on Islamic beliefs (Nidal is Muslim) to relationship advice! SO funny!!! Of course we took pictures!

A very creative shot, courtesty of Nidal :)
Nidal vanished for a little while and we had no clue where he went. I ran to the restroom, and came back to find him and Emory sitting in the tent! It was hilarious!!
Emory's getting all 'duded' up!

Who is that masked woman?!
