I returned late Friday night after a week of business travel, so family time was the order of the day. We headed over to the Grant Park playground, and ran into two other couples from Sam’s Kangaroos Playgroup. Photo gallery is here. We hung out at the park before Sam, Ayden and Shonshanna (along with their parents) all gathered for an impromptu dinner at the new Redfish on Memorial Drive. Created by the same folks as Agave (which we love as a great old standby), the place was good and our waitron was most tolerant of our trio of babies. My shrimp/crab etoufee was very good, with a hearty and smoky brown roux dominating the flavors. Amy’s wild salmon with a souffle of some sort on top was a bit salty, but apparently the wait staff sprinkles extra salt on just before serving. Just say no, next time!
