CK BD


To celebrate Chris' birthday we decided to go out for sushi. He knew of a place close by which turned out to be very mod and chic with a few differences from what we're used to. For example, an order of sushi is just one piece not two (no reduced cost though), prices on the menu are stated in Euros even though Denmark uses the Danish Crown or Kroner and they provide metal chopsticks which were sleek and appealing but a little heavy and difficult to maneuver well.
Our meal was a tasty one which we topped off with a big bowl of the standard green tea ice cream and of course Chris' own mini Danish flag in place of candles. Apparently it's a tradition to include a Danish flag in just about any kind of celebration - birthdays, anniversaries, maybe weddings, new babies, whatever. Now that his colleagues at work know it was his birthday, he can definitely expect another one!
