"2009-01-23T00:00:00"^^ . "I am in love! Oohhh, sorry not with you...but with NOCA! I cannot believe I have not been here sooner. I guess you find love when you least expect it. Since dinner here, I have not stopped thinking and fantasizing about this place. \nI knew it was going to be a great time when the charming guy at the door greeted us. We were seated promptly at a great table in the back.\nThe chardonnay I ordered was one I have never tried, now its my new fav. I tried to make a point to remember the name of it but now I forget..\nI loved the little spoonful of Gorgonzola cheese mousse with the organic date. It was a tasty tease of what was to come. \nI had the lobster roll, which was the most divine thing that has crossed these lips in awhile. It was so full of flavor....limey, creamy, lobstery..yum! I could of done with out the fries, but they were as good as a fry can be covered in aioli dip. \nUsually I don't do dessert, especially on the first visit but one look at the menu and I had to have something! I chose the milk and cookies, which sounded fun. And fun and delish it was! The cookies were almost like cake and I enjoyed dipping them into every last drop of the milkshake. Its the desert that I am definitely still thinking about. The cotton candy that they brought out at the end was a really cute touch I thought. I thought that was the end after 2 rounds of dessert but no...they had to really top it of with the chocolate chip shortbread to bring home! What restaurant does that?! Who doesn't like a tasty treat to bring home? So that basically put me over the edge and I had to proclaim my love. Too bad I'm moving out of state....but maybe it's a good thing because I am sure this love affair would cause my waist line to expand."^^ . "7"^^ . "10"^^ . "9"^^ . . "5"^^ . . .
