I had a wonderful day with my family today!  We went into NYC to see the 9/11 Memorial, Lion King on broadway, and then dinner at Bobby Van’s Grill & Steakhouse.  It was a full day, and I enjoyed every minute!  Since this blog is more focused on the program I’m following and not the events in my day, I’ll leave out the details of my morning and just tell you about my dinner…which was DELICIOUS!!

sesame crusted ahi tuna

I ordered the Sesame Crusted Ahi Tuna which typically is served rare, however as I am not the avid sushi eater…I decided on Medium Rare.   In all honesty, it was a bit out of my comfort zone, but I’m learning (trying to convince myself) to try new things!  And I am so glad I did…it truly tasted fantastic, and I loved the slight wasabi taste with the fresh avacado topping it off.  I stayed away from the seaweed salad and instead opted for a side of my new found obsession…fresh asparagus!!

My stomach did do a couple flips and flops at the end of the meal, but I’m sure this is just because my system hasn’t been used to so many flavors and sauces in the last few weeks.  And for something that tastes this good, I can definitley handle a couple gurgles in my tummy!
