Seeing the light

Everybody knows that when it comes to restaurants, dim lighting equals romance. With candles on the tables, soft pendant lights and flickering sconces on the wall, Wheaton wine bar The Cellar Bistro definitely has a cozy, shadowy vibe going on. So much so, actually, that our server offered to bring us mini-flashlights if we had trouble making out the menu. Since we thought our twenty-something eyes could handle it (and because wielding flashlights on a date seemed more laughable that romantic), we passed. Maybe we should have obliged—then we would have read that the prosciutto-wrapped shrimp dish we ordered was topped with set-our-mouth-on-fire pepper sauce. Whoops. Next time, we’ll remember there’s no shame in shedding a little bit more light on the matter...
