Dempsey Hill
http://www.dempseyhill.com/
Take away a full day's of stress and drama with a stroll at Dempsey Hill, it never fails to do that for me, especially so with a visit to Ben's.
The weather was warm and humid. It was a Wednesday evening and we needed to get out of home to find a place where we could chat without the city buzz.
Ben's and Jerry/ CA
The entrance of the place presents a laid back style, they have different kinds of seating arrangement: tall chairs, benches, sofas - take your pick.

On the other corner of Ben's is CA, a California style dining which serves sandwiches, burgers, tortillas and cocktails.
We felt a little hungry and decided to give this a try.

BBQ Chicken Tortillas and Nachos with guacamole sauce (avocado-based dip)
Nothing fantastic about the guacamole, tasted a little blend. I still prefer my nachos with cheese. But, the tortilla was served with chunky and juicy chicken, mushrooms and greens.
It was sooo yummy!

Here for the ice cream and the ice cream we must have.
We shared this humongous waffle - double ice cream scoops of your choice (Chunky Monkey & Strawberry) and extra whipped cream!

We spent almost 2 hours here, just chatting the night away, pouring our hearts and filling our stomachs. It was certainly a satisfying night.
