"When the birthday mood leans classy and classic, turn to Hugo’s, the upscale Mexican restaurant in Montrose, where margaritas get shaken tableside and little details matter, like having a coat rack brought out for your handbag. It’s scientifically impossible to fight back a smile when your birthday dessert arrives at the table with “Happy Birthday” written on the plate in chocolate sauce (like it is every year). Go to Hugo’s even once to celebrate your big day, and it’ll easily become a tradition." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
