Fish. Before and After.

Hubs and I both love seafood; probably a little bit too much. More often than not, we get cravings for a yummy whole steamed live fish. Granted it’s far from live when it’s served to us but there’s just something so delicious about plucking the meat off a freshly steamed fish that was just flopping […]

3SumEats!

We were lucky enough to be blessed by the presence of 3 Sum Eats at work. The menu looked enticing and the food looked delicious! We went out there and picked up the cornflake fried chicken sandwich. Verdict? Absolutely delicious!

Yoshida! :)

My Maternal grandparents were visiting for 6 weeks – which explained by there was a silence in my posting schedule. It was a wonderful trip and I got the opportunity to take them to Las Vegas on Virgin America to watch “O”. We also hotel hopped between Palazzo and Bellagio so they could experience the […]

End of an Era…

I grew up eating at a restaurant in SJ Japantown. This past week, through the ever useful; albeit not so efficient family phone tree, I was informed by mom, who was informed by my cousin, who got the message from my uncle that the owners of Okayama had sold their restaurant to new ownership. *GASP* […]

Happy Birthday Hubs!

I’m a little behind on this… but due to the amazingness of WordPress, I can backdate it! Happy Birthday Hubs! (And happy 8 months of being hitched. 8 months down. Forever left to go!) We celebrated with a nice gathering of friends at the local Thai restaurant and we followed it up with another dinner […]

We caravan-ed up to Castello, found parking and made […]

This past weekend our foodie friend Danny, came up to visit. Danny visiting means that Sam and I budget out calories carefully the week prior to his arrival so that we can partake in the gluttony of great food. Last year we gorged ourselves in San Francisco for the entire day, and followed it up […]

Dine About Town – E Tutto Qua…. Super Late Post!

So we had this dinner back in January and I finally found the memory card where the photos were on. Sadly it took the email I got about the June Dine About Town for me to start looking for my old January pictures. Ben picked the place and we did a quick cost-return analysis and […]

Lazy Sunday Brunch…

When Sam and I were dating, we would frequent Hobee’s in the Bay Area. I was pretty addicted to their blueberry coffee crumb cake. It had been awhile since we had brunch there so on Sunday, we stopped by. And then everything fell into place on why we don’t go anymore. Brunch took us a […]

Late Spring…

The weather this year has been funky; El Nino or La Nina has been playing tricks with nature. We had an unusually late Spring this year. The tulips that we planted bloomed in late April and our wisteria vines are full blossom now. It’s hard to believe that is is May and it feels like […]
