Thursday is "date night." Yes, Steve Carell and Tina Fey are not the only married couple that try to go out once a week. This involves my wife and I catching a movie, or doing something together.
Thursday was action packed. We decided to go see Iron Man 2 in IMAX before heading downtown to dine a Buca, this new Italian restaurant. We decided to go there because Tricia wanted to see Thompson while he was in town. Meeting with him is great, but we got a surprise guest as well.
Juan Baquero is the director of the movie "Listen to This," the one about Thompson's music program. My wife and I were completely fascinated talking to him about the filming process, and listening to him reveal how he had to choose footage from specific scenes he shot to tell the story properly. I cannot wait to see this movie.
The food was fantastic and the price point was very favourable to us. I would recommend going there. That would be Buca.

I've been looking to try Buca fro a few months. I may have to schedule a return trip for you & Tricia.
ReplyDeleteGreat that you got to meet Juan - there was an article in the Star on Saturday. It's in Corey Mintz's column FED, which is basically listening in on a dinner party he throws. It was Juan and a couple of teachers having dinner and talking about, well, the same things you talked about.
