California: part 2

It’s been a while since the first half of our California trip went live. Now before we start, spoiler alert for this post: the second part of our trip gravitated towards “food” most of the time, so make sure you have some snacks by your side if you’re hungry!

If you’re in San Francisco, I wholeheartedly recommend you to try the dim sum at Yank Sing. As someone who is always on a mission to search high and low for great dim sums, Yank Sing has made it to the top three of my list in North America (among over 15 I’ve tried). Never disappoints.

A glimpse of our room in Kimpton Sir Francis Drake. This is a boutique hotel centrally located just next to Union Square. To give you a better idea, the hotel is basically next door to Saks, and a number of shopping centers are within walking distance.

High ceilings and walls beautifully decorated with marbles, extravagant chandeliers,  old-school red velvet chairs, everything in the lobby screams opulence.

Dinner at Kin Khao, traditional Thai food with a modern twist. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor. No. 1 recommendation: beef cheek curry – I can still remember exactly how soft and tender it is while I was typing its name.

Our morning caffeine fix was taken care of by this cute little bakery and cafe at Sausalito.

Ran into Teuscher Chocolate wandering in the city. If you’re a chocoholic, this is absolutely the place to be.

Had an amazing afternoon tea with the sweet and gorgeous Lindsey from Seamless Sea at Lemarais Bakery in Castro. Must-try if you’re in the neighborhood.

This is a wrap – finally! Hope you enjoyed all the moments I captured and shared. Don’t forget to comment down below if you have any questions!

This post was in partnership with Sixt Rent a Car and Kimpton Sir Francis Drake Hotel, but as always opinions are my own.
