Del Popolo Pizza

The dough is quite yummy but the pizzas need more cheese. Got the margherita and bianca pizzas.

Blue Bottle Coffee

My sister got the cafe at lait. And I really wanted to try their saffron vanilla Snickerdoodles. I made them myself back when I was living in OC with all my baking things. Honestly, I did a better job. I didn't like the ones from the store. They tasted store bought... So now I know. Next time I'm just going to make them myself.

Rooftop Bar

These pics were taken at the Rooftop Bar in Newport Beach. I went before I moved. Just forgot to upload the pictures. They have awesome mojitos. My favorite being the champagne mojito. Go for happy hour to get half off drinks (which admittedly is still pretty pricey). But they have a spectacular view. My friend and I got to see the sunset.

La Fusion

Went here for a belated Valentine's Day dinner. The food is pretty good. We had the mixed ceviche and half a roasted chicken. For dessert: caramel apple empanadas. Super small and cramped restaurant but I think most places in SF are like that. I still think it's uncomfortable being so close to the next table, they can hear your entire conversation even if they don't want to.

Feasting with Justin

Peeps! For Easter. My dad usually gets me the chocolate dipped peeps and some Cadbury eggs for Easter. This will be my first Easter away from my family. It'll also be the first time I missed my family's birthdays. My sister just turned 18 on Saturday and she got accepted into UCSD. I'm super proud of her :) I'm glad my siblings are doing so well in school.

Justin and I went to an all you can eat sushi restaurant. That also happened to have dim sum. So much dim sum these past few weeks! I think I've had it every weekend for 3 weeks straight. And twice this weekend. I'm all dim summed out. Anyways, super duper stuffed today. Justin and I had to practically inhale our food since he had to hurry home to his family. We were supposed to eat at boiling crab but the wait was 2 hours... So we decided to just rain check it.

Those 60th anniversary vanilla creme peeps were disgusting though. They tasted like artificial vanilla. I'd just stick with the chocolate dipped ones.



Cherimoyas

Found some cherimoyas in Chinatown on Saturday! Been looking for these babies for a few months and they taste awesome! Kind of creamy texture and this bubblegum taste! They are on the sweet side. Avoid the seeds.

They are ripe when they are a little soft to the touch if you gently squeeze them. They should give a little under pressure.

100K/1K

Last Thursday I hit 100 thousand miles on my car. I also finished folding 1000 paper cranes.
