Birthday weekend in Chicago!

Awesome birthday dinner at Next =)

Started with the prix fix menu of drinks at Aviary, then over to Thailand's street food. Deliciousness times a million. Like. Stopped taking pictures because once I got to the beef cheek curry I was too into the food to pause for a pic. Appetizer platter:

 Super artsy photo of the stuffed plantain app:

 The best tom yum soup ever, with a melt in the mouth chunk of pork belly in there.

 Sunday night dinner at DMK burger bar.
