5-year Wedding Anniversary Dinner at Boka
My Husband, Steve, and I celebrated our 5-year wedding anniversary at Boka.
When Steve announced that we were celebrating at Boka I was extremely excited as it is one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago. The space is very romantic and Chef Lee Wolen always blows my taste buds away. As a blogger, I don't like to review restaurants as I leave it for the professionals like my girlfriend, Sarah Freeman of Zagat. However, I love to share what was "on Kat's plate" and its up to you decide whether you want to go and eat there.
The Boka team made our night very special and I highly recommend heading there for your next special occasion or a fabulous dinner.
I also want to include that the Eater Awards are upon us, I am proud to say I voted for Lee of Chef of the year, find out if Lee wins this Monday!
I apologize for dark or blurry pictures, as my main focus was on my husband, to enjoy our dinner and not stage picture perfect food photos.
