Picnic.

I don't think I have been on a picnic, since the Teddy Bear Picnic in grade one. That sucks, they look like a lot of fun right? On Saturday, my boyfriend and I were at the park, and decided a picnic over the long weekend would be a nice activity. I'm not going to lie, the first thing I thought of was what outfit am I going to choose, should I get new picnic shoes. Wacko I know! Other than my attire dilemma, I am pretty excited to sit outside for hours and drink wine from secret water bottles and hang out with my dude.

I'm thinking that maybe picnics should make a return to the scene. Picnic wedding? Hello! So awesome!

BLU Ristorante & Lounge

Italian food at its best, and cooked by the best. This yummyness is found at BLU Ristorante & Lounge, where Executive Chef Massimo Callovini will serve you the most amazing Braised Lamb Shank or a delicious Penne Bolognese. Being Italian, I tend to be picky about the food served at many Italian restaurants because it never tastes like the pizza and pasta I've tasted in Friuli.

However, BLU has the most delicious Italian food, smooth wines, live music and a very relaxed and cool atmosphere. It sure beats eating in Nonna's basement kitchen, sitting on shag carpeting.

BLU Ristorante & Lounge also doubles as venue space. It can accommodate up to 110 people while at the same time offering a size able reception/cocktail area and bar. They even have staging and sound systems for live entertainment.

If you decide to plan a private function, be sure to check out there preset menus.
