Pre-dinner cocktails. Haven’t been here forever. Views are spectacular on a beautiful SF evening.

Quince
Wow. We were very much looking forward to coming back here once they opened. Definitely the most expensive meal I’ve ever prepaid (tasting menu plus wine pairings of course) though.

We brought along bottles of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Croix from our tasting earlier in the week. since we each did four courses, we were able to try everything on the menu.
