I’m finally getting around to blogging about my late September trip to Hawaii which was awesome. First off, every day we were there it was 86F with one day almost hitting 90F. Sunny. Blue water. Beach. Humid. Hot. Real Hot. Loved it. And so did the family. We got in around noon which is perfect...
Freedom. I had a free Thursday which was made even better because it was super warm and sunny out. I had arranged to meet my friend for lunch at 12:15pm in front of HRD Cafe. I got there a few minutes before and was braced for a huge line based on reviews I had read....
I was getting my haircut last month and I asked everyone there what their favorite Chinese BBQ place was in SF. To-date mine was Win’s on Taraval. A customer piped up that Cheung Hing on Noriega was one of the best. But she also thought Ming Kee “somewhere on Ocean” had the best soy sauce chicken...
Anna’s mum was in town over July 4th weekend so we were able to leave the kids with her and go out on a rare “date night”! Problem was we didn’t know where to go. I had done a little bit of research beforehand but the places I wanted to try were difficult to get...
Win’s is the best Chinese BBQ place I know of in San Francisco. They cover the typical food dish categories like “chicken”, beef”, “pork”, “congee”, “braised noodles”, “yee mein”, “chow mein and chow fun” but I think the best thing they have is the BBQ meats. I’ve eaten in countless times and do takeout from...
I haven’t been to Hukilau in years. Last time I went I wasn’t too impressed. If I remember correctly, I had kalua pork and it was super salty. Anna wanted to check it out to see if it had gotten any better since she thought it might be a good option for Lilly’s 1 year...
I decided on Wayfare Tavern for my belated birthday dinner. Given we were going with the kids we made an early 5pm reservation. I read no reviews on this place (on purpose) with my only information coming from seeing a few tweets from people who had gone there and loved it. Since the restaurant is...
Emma decided in the morning that she wanted to her favorite sushi for dinner which is avocado maki. So we decided to do take out from ICHI Sushi which opened fall 2010 in our neighborhood. I called and ordered takeout: spicy scallop roll, vegetable futomaki, avocado maki (of course!), chicken wings, spider roll, and salmon...
Sorry for the lack of posts the past month but my daughters keep getting sick and, in turn, so do I. I thought I had it licked a couple of weeks ago and then it went downhill again. I’m almost back to normal now. Anna and I have been wanting to try this place since...
I’ve been having a craving for donuts for a few weeks and had this free 50% off discount coupon from a shop called The Jelly Donut. I had looked it up and it got good reviews. This past Saturday, the kids both fell asleep in the car so we had to kill some time. It...
