I loveeee food. And I loveeee Nutella. That’s such a specific food to be in love with, but it’s unfortunately true.

There’s a bistro in D.C. that I’m also obsessed with, and it’s called CIRCA. If you haven’t seen my latest video, check it out below. The end of the video was filmed in CIRCA, and you get to see me eat which is always exciting.

I was supposed to meet my friend at CIRCA, but she couldn’t join so I went alone. I love eating out alone, and I’ve slowly learned how crucial alone time is. I’m not one of those people who can be surrounded by people allll of the time: I go crazy. If you’ve ever watched Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw is always out eating alone. People always think it’s “weird” to be out alone, but take it from Carrie: stop caring what people think, and just be yourself.

What did I eat at CIRCA?

Steak salad, and all of the desserts above. I didn’t eat all of them, but I had a good portion of each. They were too good not to eat! I love the steak salad because the steak is always perfectly done, and I swap out the bleu cheese for the goat cheese. Does anyone actually like bleu cheese? I seriously despise bleu cheese. As much as I adore steak, I’d rather be eating the Nutella trifle. The caramel dulce cake is to die for. I don’t love the cheesecake, but I ordered it to take the picture. I would have really liked the cheesecake but I don’t like cheesecake in general, so it was probably silly for me to order it.

At the end of the day, do whatever makes your heart happy and your tummy full. Don’t spend time thinking about what other people are doing: focus on yourself. Trust me, you’ll be much happier that way.

Xo,
