Lunch at Hakkasan San Francisco

Since our flight from San Francisco back to Seattle wasn't until later that evening, we had some time to kill in the city. I chose to indulge a little for lunch and checked out the Michelin-star awarded Hakkasan. Established first in London, this modern Cantonese restaurant has expanded all across the globe with locations in Dubai, Miami, and Shanghai plus a few more. We lunched on a selection of dim sum classics as well as more innovative culinary creations.

What Did You Do in Pescadero?

The tiny town of Pescadero (pop. 643) was our destination when we went on our drive on Hwy 1. We really didn't know what was special about it, but our aunts seem to adore this place.  Small towns possess their own charming qualities after all.

California's Hwy 1: Santa Cruz to Pescadero

During our visit last weekend, our aunts decided to take us on a drive to a charming town they love called Pescadero. Stuart and I have driven down California's scenic coastal highway from San Francisco to Santa Cruz before, but there was so much fog that we could only see as far as a few meters out. This time we were blessed with clear and sunny weather.
