It has been 3 and a half months since I last bought handbags. My last purchase was last June in Italy.

I bought LV Speedy in Epi leather (black), LV Monogram Canvas Galliera PM and a GUCCI shopper's bag.

Affagatto

Bar del Professore @ Naples

Affagatto


The best affagatto I had was in a cafe, Bar del Professore, in Napoli. Apparently, this sidewalk cafe is a well-known one. We sat outdoors and next to our table was a staircase that led to the train station underground.



The cafe


The cafe is set right smack in the busy town. It was great to just sit and people-watch. The bar is really tiny ... nothing fanciful, but the coffee was simply excellent!

Public Transport

Went to town after work for a few errands with SIL. Took public transport, namely the bus, and nearly dozed off at the speed it was travelling at. Super slowwwwwww...... I wonder why the driver insisted on the slow speed bec it was not as if traffic was heavy. Sigh..... And to think that public transport fares have increased. What a drag!

Food Fest #1 - San Francisco


One of our lunches was at The Pier Restaurant @ Fisherman's Wharf. It was a dine-in restaurant...quite full and crowded. We had to wait in line for about 20 minutes before we got a seat. Food was great and service was excellent. Seafood was definitely fresh....yummy. We ordered the clam chowder and crab cakes. I had Cioppino as my main and Pops had the Catch of the Day, a boringgggggg choice. We shared a brownie for desert....it was warm and moist and the vanilla ice-cream was definitely creamy.

Desert

We went to other places too and ate other different things. Didnt manage to take pics of all the food that we ate but nonetheless our collection of food pics was enough to fill the MB space in our digicams.

What else for Pops ? Ice - cream !

This was definitely for me ! Banana, nutella and cheese crepe.....Super duper yummy!

We had macaroni and cheese here at Wolfgang Puck Express @ Macy's

I wonder how anyone can eat these apples....They are so sweet!!! Pop's favourite. He had this twice!!!!

Ghirardelli

Was at the supermarket yesterday when we came across a can of cocoa....Pops got so excited that he insisted we buy it. Of course we didnt expect to see this particular brand here.








It brought back memories of when we were in San Francisco last year. We bought and ate so much of Ghirardelli chocolates. It was damn heavy lugging back chocolates, we decided to bring back a few but ate quite a bit of it when we were there.










We both had a great time eating there. The chocolates were crazy... We kept buying sweets and chocolates. The fudge and chocolate and caremel coated apples were totally divine.... Cannot forget the seafood though. Below are the usual dose of what you can find in San Francisco.





Onion Rings







Clam Chowder in Bread Bowl







Seafood Platter




We had the above at Monterey Marina. Will update more later.
