Chez Panisse

We went to Chez Panisse for dinner today. Or I suppose it’s yesterday now. We weren’t able to get reservations for the first seating at 6pm so we had reservations for 9:15pm. But that meant that we didn’t get out from dinner until after 11pm, which, youch! This is the second [...]

Citizen Thai & the Monkey

I realize that it’s been a while since I wrote a post wherein I pretend like I’m some kind of gourmand and food reviewer, when really, it’s more just that I’m a glutton. I don’t know, it’s a mood thing. But anyway! I’m rectifying that now.
On Saturday we went to Citizen Thai [...]

Hankering

I was browsing through random photos on flickr when I saw a photo of someone’s nigiri. Mmmmm, delicious. So even though we were going to have leftover barbecued ribs (we barbecued last night) for dinner, I think we’re gonna go get some sushi now.
I think it’s an addiction. :p

Andy & Cindy at the Farmer’s Market

Al commented yesterday about a stand at the Tuesday Berkeley Farmer’s Market. Since we didn’t know what we were gonna do for dinner today anyhows, we decided to go give it a try. We had indecision problems though so we ended up with too much food. I’ll try to have it for [...]

The Looong Weekend

So I went to visit the DC Area last weekend. I took like a bajillion pictures, but loads of cruddy ones. You know, eyes closed, blurry, dark, etc. I keep meaning to post up about the weekend, but the thing is, we did SOOOOOO much, I’m tired just thinking about it. [...]

I Spent a Day in SF, Part of it Out in the Sun(!)

This weekend, for like the second weekend in a row, we made it out of our apartment. I know, crazy! But the weather’s been amazing.
We went to the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco on Saturday. I really like the new building. And I really like the location. It’s like [...]

Dinner at Farallon

Yut’s brother is in town for a few days for some sort of conference so we went to the city to meet up with him for dinner at Farallon, which was walking distance from his hotel (San Francisco Marriott). The SF Marriott was fine, but surprisingly unswanky.

This is the main room, you can see [...]

I Have the Brain of a 78-Year-Old

I pre-ordered Brain Age at EBGames last week. They told me that it was scheduled to be available on Monday (yesterday) or Tuesday (today) but they’d call me when it was available. Of course, I went to check after work yesterday, even without the phone call. Just in case. Well, GOOD [...]
