I bought Stef tickets to the theater as a birthday present and we decided to grab dinner at Le Colonial before the show. From the OpenTable description: "Excellent Vietnamese cuisine served in a romantic French setting reminiscent of days gone by. Le Colonial evokes the tropical elegance of Vietnam in the 1920's." and it actually lived up to the billing! Delicious meal in a truly elegant setting, I really felt like I was back at the Elephant Bar in Le Grand Angkor, Siem Reap, right down to the drop of sweat on my brow from the unseasonable warmth (and the uphill walk to the restaurant!).
The play we saw was Richard III starring Kevin Spacey in the eponymous role. The costumes were modern but the dialogue was all Shakespeare, which made the captivating nature of this adaptation all the more impressive. We both really enjoyed the play and thought the entire cast was stellar, but Kevin Spacey in particular stole the show.
All-in-all a great date night!
