    Steakhouse 85

    I was here in New Jersey for an AI and Cybersecurity conference from one of our VARs. Our account manager took me and a couple other of his customers out to dinner on the evening before the conference started. I was starving because on my flight out on United, they didn’t serve any food (and

    We were on our way back home from the Ritz (was there for a conference) so went to the main street of Half Moon Bay and ended up decided on this Mediterranean restaurant after looking at Google maps and the ratings there. The host/owner? was quite friendly and welcoming. Because we like to try a

    My very good friend Chris was in town for the Databricks conference. Since he can’t eat red meat, I figured sushi was a good option (and a lot of restaurants are closed on Monday). Andrea and I had eaten here several times and most recently in December so it had always been a solid option

    We wanted something for dessert after eating at Yank Sing. So we wandered through the Ferry Building and ended up getting ice cream at Humphry Slocombe. Andrea had two scoops, one of the Malted Milk Chocolate and another of the Peanut Butter Fudge Ripple. I had the Chocolate Dipped Strawberry. We both thought that it

    This Saturday, I wanted to go on a longer run. I started off in Golden Gate Park and decided to take the Coastal Trail starting in Land’s End and head towards the bridge, then along Crissy Field, along the Embarcadero, and ultimately the Ferry Building – almost 16 miles in total (I took a small

    We were looking for a relatively low-key dinner this Friday. We decided to eat here previously and enjoyed ourselves (it turns out we hadn’t eaten here since 2022 so it had been a lot longer than we had remembered). We made reservations for seating at the bar since that’s where we get to see all

    It was going to be a beautiful day this Saturday so I always think about doing my favorite run to Tiburon. Of course, I’m not quite in shape to do the whole 20-mile distance starting from home so I had Andrea drop me off at the vista point (on the Marin side) for the GG

    We were celebrating Andrea’s birthday at her favorite restaurant. This was our seventh time here, but surprisingly we hadn’t been here in a year…when we were celebrating her b-day last year! We both ordered cocktails, which didn’t arrive until our 4th course/bite. Andrea had the Californios Martini and I had the Cantarito. The martini was

    Matthias wanted to eat here and for good reason! We also were all interested in having something different and since we don’t often eat out for German food (last time for us was at Suppenküche 6 months ago). Restaurant was fairly small with about 10 tables. We were seated with two square tables put together

    After the Lily’s Baccalaureate, we went to District Table & Bar for dinner. Andrea and I each ordered their Harlot’s Martini which is a dirty martini made with Dolin vermouth, goat cheese stuffed olives, lemon oil. Andrea had hers made with vodka (Ketel One) and mine was made with Tanqueray gin. Pretty tasty. The goat
