It's official: HANA IS DONE WITH UNDERGRAD!
So the family descended on Boston to take her our to celebrate and see her diploma in hand.
The celebration dinner was at Legal Sea Foods in the Prudential Center. We were a large group - Haile, Almaz, Sara, Manny, Hirut, Aunt Abi, Uncle Belete, DJ and Mel - so we scored a huge table in a quiet booth corner. Sweet! We started off with a trio of fried goodness: calamari, coconut shrimp, and crab cakes. You really can't go wrong with that!
For a main course, Mel decided to try what sounded like a seafood stew - a variety of delicious seafood in a tomato broth. But apparently, Legal Sea Foods believes in very large servings so the dish was less of a stew and more of a massive pile of fish. Granted - it was extremely tasty!!! But in terms of actually finishing it... not physically possible.
Now DJ, always the adventurous one, ordered King Crab Legs. Perhaps the fact that he was the only person at the table who received a bib and a shell crusher before the meal should have been a sign that the dish would be intense. Buuut... as you can see from the smile on his face, he was not to be intimidated.
In fact, the King Crab was quite large and equally delicious. The meat actually melted in one's mouth. And DJ tackled it like a champ. He dug in without abandon or worry that buttery sauce was dripped down his hands, and enjoyed every morsel.
CONGRATULATIONS, HANA!!
