    We went to the art show at Hunters Point shipyard and were looking for something for dinner. We picked this place because it was pretty close to where we were and a place I had been curious about for awhile esp. after having eaten at Omakase, the sister restaurant, a couple weeks ago. This is…

We were the first to arrive although the restaurant was fully booked for 5:30pm on a Wednesday evening, but in talking to the somm (this time we were seated all the way on the right…

    Andrea was out for her annual work dinner with her coworkers so instead of just staying home myself, I decided to go out for dinner. I decided on sushi and there were a couple restaurants I had been wanting to revisit, but I checked with Andrea which one she wanted to go to more between…

    Morimoto

    Our last meal here. I picked Morimoto since it would be different from the two meals of Chinese food we already had at Din Tai Fung and Hakkasan. We had eaten at Morimoto Asia in Napa in October, but found it meh. Many years ago (2012!) we had eaten at Morimoto in Napa and I…

    Popped in for a quick lunch at Saru. When they used to have lunch service during the week pre-pandemic, I had eaten here a 2 or 3 times a week after my mid-day run because they had a lunch menu then. Saru is only open for weekends now and it’s the same menu for lunch…

    We were in Hampstead so went to this place that Trisha liked. I was kind of glad to get a lighter meal and Japanese is always a good go to for me. It was a cold day, so nice to start with some miso. I ordered the salmon maki to start, Andrea ordered the vegetable…

    Andrea was working in the office today, so whenever she does, I always ask if she wants to have dinner downtown, which she did. So I booked us at Akikos which we enjoyed in the past as well as their sister restaurant, Friends Only, which more of their experimental restaurant. We had early reservations as…

    We were looking for a quick and easy low key dinner (and ideally healthy), so we walked down to Dash. Last time we walked by here on a Friday, it was packed. Today on a Tuesday, maybe half full. We ordered a half bottle of Dassai 45 which was actually better than I remember it…

    We were just looking for a low key dinner this Wednesday evening, so we decided to just dine in our neighborhood. I’m always up for sushi so Saru seemed like a good option, esp. if we could get seating at the bar. They don’t take reservations and it’s a small restaurant (I think 6 tables…
