I had the best dinner last night with my friend Ilyssa at Banc Cafe. Ilyssa somehow found out about this place a few months ago and I absolutely LOVE it!! The concept is very cool; it used to be a bank and is now converted into a bar and restaurant. I also love that they have a great happy hour and you can sit at a table and still order from the happy hour menu- this is key! Most places do NOT honor happy hour prices if you are sitting down to dinner so that is always exciting. Plus the happy hour specials are beyond the usual cosmos/appletinis. Yesterday I had a sugarless cucumber martini and it was great! It's on 32nd and 3rd.. would highly recommend if you are in the area.
So, I was a little bummed because I couldn't have my favorite meal there (angel hair pasta in vodka sauce with chicken, peppers and spinach) - SO good. I decided to ask the waitress if she could give me the same dish with steamed broccoli instead of pasta. She was so nice about it and IT WAS AMAZING!!! AMAZING!! And hardly any carbs at all! The vodka sauce there is very thin - not heavy at all - so I'm sure it's probably not that bad calorie wise, either.
Oh, and more info about the cupcakes below- they are about 100 calories per cupcake and 2-3 grams of fat each. So maybe 2 points on weight watchers if you are doing that.
