While we were patiently waiting going up-hill before our descend on Lombard St., I decided the Hotel can actually wait and let's do Chinatown first. So we did just that, with a late Dim Sum Lunch on all our Minds. To my surprise, the Restaurant the "Golden Dragon" which happened to be one of the best in Chinatown a few years back... was no longer there. So the next best thing to do, was ask a Chinese Guy where is the best place for Dim Sum?
As luck would have it, the one he mentioned was only a couple Blocks away. During our wait to be seated (10 min.), we looked at some Photo's on the wall inside this Place and we're shocked to see... Obama has actually been here to eat. I guess, now this would most likely to be considered the "Best" in Town. Being seated, they give you a list of items and all we do is... check-off what we want to eat.
As usual, our eyes were bigger than our Stomach's. Counting the items, we had marked a grand total of 15 different items. This also shocked our Waiter, who recognized this was way too much for just three People. Kind of embarrassed, we managed to take off a whole two (2) items.. haha!
One item that stayed on the list, was "Chicken Feet"... no not for me or Tianchi! Qing likes them and doesn't have the opportunity to eat them often, so I made sure it stayed on. I really love to watch her eat those "Boney" little things with some skin on it. I don't have to tell you, we could have rolled out of there. For some needed exercise, instead of going to the Hotel now... it was off to the south-side of the Bridge. Park the Car, time to walk this Food off and walk that Bridge to the other side. Well, lets say 3/4 of the Bridge! I'm sure glad the Golden Gate could manage to hold that "Extra" weight we brought with us here.
By now it was close to 5:30pm and more than ready to get to Hotel and lay down a bit, before we go to the Wharf.
