We went to San Francisco last weekend and spent the night in Union Square, where all the action is. We actually left on Friday and had lunch at a great Mexican restaurant called Tropisueño. I had read some good things about the place, and we found it to be excellent. You
order at the counter (one of the few places I've ever found that has quesadillas made with corn tortillas!), and then you seat yourself and your order is brought to you. I, of course had the aforementioned corn quesadillas and a chicken tamal, and the hub had 2 super tacos. We each had a Jamaica. Mmm.
From there, we proceeded to visit many shops...mostly at Westfield San Francisco, which is beautiful. By the time we were finished exploring Union Square, it was about time for us to get all dressed up for our dinner. We were celebrating our anniversary, and had not yet decided on a dinner destination by the time we had donned our duds, so there was a little bit of a discussion about that. I, personally, didn't think we would get in to any restaurant at dinner time on a Friday night without a reservation...plus, it was rush hour. So, we decided to eat at the steak house inside the hotel (Mission Steak). This was a good decision, by the way. Dinner was soooo-ooo good. We each had Chimichurri Skirt Steak with fingerling potatoes (even though my husband doesn't like to order the same thing as me), and polished it off with a hot fudge sundae. After dinner, we went back to the room and changed, and then went back out and watched a movie at the Metreon.
It was a great trip San Francisco...but our anniversary celebrations weren't over. We also spent Sunday at the Spa getting a Massage, a Facial, and a Pedicure (the last two were for me only). To be honest, I was a little disappointed with our spa experience and would leave that out next time. Not my fave. Maybe we just didn't go to the right spa...
Anyway, that was our fun weekend. Look for a post soon with pics of new Mixed Media pieces.
