It’s time to get back to focusing on San Francisco, so I’m just sticking the last few items from my trip to New York here in a big photo post. Includes Shake Shack, Lunch at Jean George, Brooklyn Brewery and Russ & Daughters. Enjoy!
With SF Beer Week in the rear view mirror, I’m trying to get caught up on some blog posts. I’ve still got a backlog of pictures from my January trip to New York City.

Who doesn’t love brunch? It has everything you could want in a meal: a leisurely pace, drinks and pancakes. In Denver, Brian, Kimberley and I asked what was a good spot for brunch, we were told in no uncertain terms to get over to Snooze as quickly as possible. Once there, we found the place [...]
