Now You Can Order Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s ‘First Date Shrimp’ At One of Their Favorite Restaurants

For Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco love is definitely on the menu. Literally. The couple announced on Sunday (March 16) that they have teamed up with the authentic Thai restaurant Jitlada in L.A. to help other couples enjoy the fried shrimp with curry the singers shared on their first date at the spot.

“My very first date with @itsbennyblanco was at @jitladaLA on Sunset Blvd [heart emoji] To celebrate our upcoming album, I Said I Love You First, we only thought it was right for you to experience it too!,” the singer wrote on X. “Visit Jitlada if you want to try First Date Shrimp, starting today.”

The post featured a graphic image for “Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco’s First Date Shrimp” over two shrimp formed into the shape of a heart; the meal is available now through March 23.

Last week, Gomez celebrated fiancé Blanco’s 37th birthday with an adorable Insta post in which she wrote, “I’m not sure what I did to deserve you but damn am I glad you were born.. happy birthday baby,” she wrote along with photos of the couple snuggling and smiling. As part of the celebration, Gomez and Blanco went back to Jitlada, the restaurant where they had their first date.

Gomez and Blanco continued the roll-out of their first joint album last week with the release of the single “Sunset Blvd.” Like the restaurant shrimp, the song is inspired by a crucial point in the couple’s relationship, in this case the location of their first date. The album, I Said I Love You First, is due out on March 21; the project will feature the previously released singles “Scared of Loving You” and “Call Me When You Break Up” featuring Gracie Abrams.
