Ryan and I celebrated our two year anniversary this weekend. It started when he called me at work on Friday afternoon to let me know he had made RESERVATIONS (!!) at a new restaurant in Fort Worth. He had conspired with our neighbor, who is a wine distributor, to pick the perfect location. He took me to Lanny’s Alta Cocina Mexicana. Totally amazing date! I’ve reviewed the establishment on yelp. Ryan did a great job by taking me to a 5-star restaurant (and I mean 5 yelp stars!).
A little background on Lanny, from their web site:
Lanny, the great-grandson of the legendary restaurateur Joe. T. Garcia, was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas spending most of his time in a restaurant. He has traveled extensively through Mexico cooking and learning what a meal means within the Mexican Culture. Rooted in Mexican Cuisine he began to explore the ideas of Mexican and Haute Cuisine. It was the passion behind these ideas that led him to study at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York where he had a more formal understanding of Classic Fundamentals. He spent three years developing a concept and cuisine within the walls of Joe. T. Garcia’s before opening the restaurant on July 27, 2005.
