Boston: Chinatown

After our midday drinks, we headed back to the Hilton to check in and take a break from all the exploring. We got a room with an amazing view of a building (yeah for city living!), but the room itself was really nice.

Luke talked to his future boss, Dan earlier that day and got a couple recommendations for dinner. One of Dan's top picks was a Malaysian restaurant in Chinatown, Penang. I'd never had Malaysian, but decided if Dan considered it a top pick in all of Boston, then it must be good. He definitely knew what he was talking about...the food was amazing--especially my mango shrimp, which came in a hollowed mango and a delicious sauce. The menu was HUGE with so many options...we can't wait to try them all!

Mango Shrimp...yum!

We made sure to save some room for dessert and found a boba tea/bakery a couple blocks from the restaurant. The boba tea was amazing and the cakes they made looked even more so.

Luke is excited about the boba tea! :)

After dessert it was time for bed. Luke had a big interview to get to in the morning and I had to navigate the subway system to Quincy and Harvard...yikes! :)
