Farewell San Francisco

Well, the answer is no, we didn’t go for the chowder bowl. We took a look at a restaurant recommended by the tour bus guy but it was a 45 minute wait for a table, so we ended up at the same place as last night.  They seated us right by the kitchen, which is open so you can see the chefs (2) working their butts off. Very interesting, if not a tad unpleasant, if someone has ordered lobster. I shan’t go into detail in case there are any readers of a nervous or vegetarian disposition.

We both had a cup of their excellent clam chowder, and then Dud had a shrimp and scallop combo in a hot, as in temperature, ‘Asian’ sauce. I was a good boy tonight, having a Dungeness crab, caesar salad.

And so, we are back at the hotel, packing our things and getting ready for bed. Tomorrow we ride down the coast to Monterey and hopefully some warmer and drier weather. As we came back from the restaurant, it was raining again. Very unseasonal for June, so everyone is telling us.

We've had a very enjoyable day today, despite the weather at times and have seen enough to know that we would defintely consider coming back here some day. It's a fascinating city and we've only had a brief glimpse.
