67, 73, 74, 88

In the last 24 hours before we leave for Peru (less than an hour!), we have checked off 4, count that, FOUR items, from our Top 100 list. We are now 13% done with the whole list! Ahem:
#67 - Paper masala dosa at Dosa
Amaaaazing and HUGE. Such amazing and diverse tastes. But huge. But would go back to this place ANY DAY.
#73 - Popovers with strawberry butter at Rotunda
Light and fluffy popovers with a super delicious and creamy strawberry butter to smother on top (Pop - this one would be your cupe of tea!). Note: at only $2 a pop, they didn't seem too happy that those were all we bought.

#74 - Corned-beef sandwich with Gruyere at The Sentinel
This place is always crowded, but looks like a newspaper stand. Literally right across from my office, and I just today tried it. Pretty tasty sauce and melted cheese on savoury corned-beef!

#88 - Buckwheat crepe and a French cider at Ti Couz
We forgot while in here, that we live in San Francisco. It felt like Paris again, as a tiny and authentic French place, with really great crepes and cider.


And the waiter even flambeed our crepe suzette!


In about 20 minutes we leave for the airport with the supplies in our bags that every red-eye flight needs:
-bottled starbucks
-diet coke
-gum. lots.
-iPhone with movies on it
-way too many fruit rollups

And I am SO. EXCITED. Now that it's here and actually happening! Also I think I'm going to have wifi there. And I sneaked a peek at our hotels and they're FABULOUS (thank you, in-laws!). So here's to looking ahead to a good night's sleep when we arrive in Lima!
