Bay to Breakers - Where's the Food?

If you were wondering why the hoards of naked old men were running rampant in San Francisco yesterday, it's because it was Bay to Breakers. Being new to the city, we had to get our first glimpse at this event, so we grabbed our wine in a can and headed down to the park.

What an unbelievable scene. Thousands of people stormed the streets, in all kinds of questionable, but hilarious, costumes. We saw old naked men, a zombie with a brain dangling in front of her face, a group of shuttle cocks and a lot of old naked men. As the masses stumbled through the park, one question kept popping up, where's the food?

Good News for the Irish

Just in time for St. Patrick's day, another John Campbell's Irish Bakery has opened up (yesterday) in Pacific Heights/Cow Hollow (San Francisco). In case you're not familiar, the other one is on Geary Blvd. in Outer Richmond and boasts some of the tastiest Irish breads/desserts around.

A few items that are particularly tasty are the Irish Raisin Soda Bread, chocolate cherry bread and snowballs. What is a snowball? Remember this:

It's more or less a classy, tastier version of these. Didn't know these were in the Irish repertoire, but they are frickin good.

Congrats to John Campbell's on a well deserved second store.
