Not like I need an excuse to eat out, but...
Many of you have probably attended progressive dinners. You know, each successive course is prepared and eaten at the residence of a different host.
We are going to mix it up and have each course (of a 3 course meal comprising of drink/appetizer, dinner, dessert) at a different restaurant. The challenge -- to keep the spending at $50 per person, or under for all 3 courses.
Sound fun? Let us know if you have any recommendations on places to try, or if you would like to join us on one of these jaunts.
Watch this space for our first Progressive Dinner post!

Cocola - San Jose
Love dessert? Think chocolate should be its own food group?
The folks at Cocola are with you. Thankfully, so do bazillion other people! No matter what time of day, or day of the week, Cocola always seems to be crowded. Who knew sugar, butter, flour and some flavoring agents could be this addicitive!
For someone that doesn't really have a sweet tooth, I still seem to find myself here more often than is reasonable. It is especially fun to walk over here after a meal at one of the other restaurants, and get some coffee and dessert.
The mosaic bistro tables are placed optimally to maximize people watching, so whether you are sipping on a cup of jo, grabbing a quick lunch, or gorging yourself on the sweet treats, this is a fun place to meet friends, get your sugar fix, or just a quick bite to eat. Some of my personal favorites include the Rouge (Strawberry Cake), and the 3-Color Chocolate Mousse.
If you have not already been here, go try it, and tell us what you think!
