Dustin's Birthday Dinner

My brother-in-law Dustin's birthday is coming up on June 30th, so we all went to dinner at Genghis Grill. This is one of his favorite places to go and it is new to us. He thought we would all have fun trying something different.



So, you go through the line with your little bowl and you pick out what kind of protein you want. Becky and I had a hard time getting over the fact that is is all RAW! Jaycie almost cried when daddy put chicken in her bowl because it looks so weird. We laughed and made faces as we put stuff in our bowls. Next, you get to put your own spices, vegetables, or fruit in the bowl. There are many different kinds of sauces you can pick to have your food cooked with too. Then, you choose rice or noodles and they take your bowl away and cook it on a big round grill. It really is cool how they have it sectioned off and they use these big wooden stick things to move it and turn it.



Then they give you a number and you take it to your table and they bring you your food when it is all cooked. It actually looked pretty good! I have a hard time trying new and different things, but we'll see! Here is the finished product! Yum!

We all had a lot of fun and enjoyed eating at a new place. Dustin was glad everyone came and liked his special restaurant! Thumbs up Dustin!














Then after dinner, some of us decided to go next door and have some dessert at Piccomolo. It is Italian Ice Cream called Gelato. It is different. I'm not sure we really liked it. I think everyone likes regular ice cream or frozen yogurt better, but it was fun to try it. It is really cute inside with neat little chairs. The kids all had fun eating with the little shovels, lol!



(Silly Zach, sticking his tongue out, LOL!)



What a fun day, Happy Birthday Dustin!
