Koi Palace (鯉魚門): Finally made it to this Chinese restaurant, right after we started driving there I got a text from Peter, a college friend, so we ended up meeting there for dim-sum. The wait was long but was worth it. Best Chinese food in bay area so far. We went there again the day [...]
Went to 43Things, and discovered 43 Places, cool stuff!
Here’s my 43 Places: http://www.43places.com/person/ayn… I’m sure I’ve missed some places I’ve been to, most of them were long long time ago…

some quick and dirty restaurant reviews:

These glasses look like their high [...]
Sherry and I finally tried out ABC, it was alright, prices a bit high for dim-sum, but was good. They have kickass congee, we waited more than half an hour for them to get a new batch of congee ready, got the one with “fresh frogs”, good shit…
Saturday night we went to Fahrenheit Ultra [...]
I tried to go to Milpitas Square per recommendation from my friend Gordon, I went to that area but I’m not sure if that was it. Wherever I went was very close to a Cisco facility (I don’t think that was their headquarters).
Anyway, I found a little Asian mall and tried one of the HK-style [...]
