Sunday March 2
Well the restaurant last night was great. The Morris, near the Mission on Mariposa. Highly recommend! We had a variety of small plates and they were all good, although I wasn’t crazy about the duck pate, Lee liked it. We got radishes with an anchovy dip, a little gems salad, a citrus/halibut cerveche, mushroom profiteroles, and a tortellini main. I also ordered the donuts with whiskey anglaise for dessert and managed to eat 3 of them, leaving 2 for Lee to eat for breakfast. The portions were all very manageable, so we were satiated without being uncomfortably stuffed.
In the morning I am still waking up at 5, but it’s ok. I had a room Keurig coffee and Lee bought fruit and croissants yesterday so I had 1/2 a banana and a croissant. When room service opened I ordered a latte, delivered by a robot. The robot was adorable! It squeaked at me when I said thank you, lol.
We had reservations at Yang Sing for dim sum at 10:30. We walked there, about a mile and a half. We met Daniel, Kelsey and Emi there. They came into the city to hang with us for the day. Their friend Joss joined us as well. Dim Sum was good. I was very hungry so I needed some dumplings and Lee and Dan knew better than to give me free rein because I would order anything that came by! I did manage to control myself and save myself for the things I really love. I got egg tarts, yay! Emi liked the egg rolls and the soup dumplings. She didn’t like the bbq pork buns. I was surprised, cause they’re sweet. Maybe she’s more of a savory girl, because she didn’t like the crust of the egg tart either. Or maybe she was just getting full!
Afterwards we walked over to the Salesforce Garden, the Highline-like place on top of the bus terminal. We walked around the loop, stopping at a little playground for a while so Emi could play. Then we walked back to Luma, stopping to get a coffee and say goodbye to the others. It was nice to see Joss, and we’ll see Daniel, Kelsey and Emi again tomorrow.

We Ubered to Hog Island Sunday evening for oysters. We got a citrus salad and the halibut entree too. It was fine, not incredible, but decent.
This morning I ran along the Embarcadero. It started out pretty chilly, 41F, so I wore light gloves, my vest and a headband. It started warming up though and I shed the gloves and headband pretty quickly. Nice run, a little faster than usual. The Embarcadero is one of my favorite places on earth to run!
Then after a shower it was time to walk to brunch. We tried a place called Town’s End Brunch. I got the french toast and it was excellent! I ate it all! Lee got a burger and said it was meh.
We’ll head back to Los Altos around noon. Tomorrow we get to bbsit for Emi!
