It was Valentine's Day 2011. The place was Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, located near L.A. Live in Los Angeles. It was 10 pm and the place was packed. Lights were dim and the table setting was nice. Even the menus were pretty. Before this place, the nicest restaurant ive ever been to was Red Lobster and Olive Garden...lol
*Before I continue with our date, let's rewind just a tad*
It was my turn to go visit my bitch, so I told him in advance to plan something nice for V-Day. Normally between thanksgiving and V-Day im cranky because im always single and surrounded by love struck couples. So this was the first time I looked forward to this day. I took $500 of my income tax money and got my hair, nails and what I was wearing that night. My dress was cute and I couldnt wait to be seen in it. He never told me where we were going until I got dressed and then my mouth dropped and I went off...
THE NIGHT CLUB?!?
I dont wanna go to the fuckin club! Single people go to the club and weez a couple now! I want to go someplace romantico for V-Day. Its 8pm.
So we drove... And drove... And drove. Parking near L.A. Live was $20 so his fat ass wanted to park wayyyyyy over der------->>>>
Im not walking 50 miles in heels! So I made him pay the $20. He was mad and walked ahead of me while we looked for a place to eat. I shot down every place he chose and we walked passed the club.
Dont even think about it!
Then @ 10pm, Fleming's caught our eye. The place was beautiful. We were seated and then they gave us the menu.
{GASPS}
Thats when I knew we werent going to eat. His lips said, "order whatever you want." His facial expression and body language pleaded for me to be quiet and dont order shit! We both knew he couldnt afford this place.
We ordered the following items:
•Fresh mozzarella and sweet tomato salad $9.50.
*it had 5 cherry tomatoes cut in half, 5 skinny strips of lettuce and 3 small pieces of cheese*
•One chicken breast $28.95.
•French fries and onion rings $8.95.
The romantic part was when we shared the meal. We laughed as we took pictures of our dinner. The salad tastes good and the chicken was melt-in-your-mouth delicious!
The night started off rough, but ended kinda cool. We held hands as we walked to the car.

I wrote a post not that long ago about a big collard green eating woman who turned my stomach by the way she was eating. That meal actually took place at a Fleming's in Atlanta Georgia.
I liked it, I plan on going again one of these days.
I wouldnt mind going back. I searched online and there are quite a few restaurants across the U.S. and theres one not far from me.
awww...well, look at it this way; at least it didn't start off good and end up jacked up.
That seems like quite the spot!
I agree with No Labels...glad it ended well. :D
