Continuing cold symptoms, day 7. Nap. Rode UberX to the Castro. Arrived early for our dinner reservation, so we walked in the neighborhood. Dinner at Canela with Patrick. Patrick had wanted to try Canela's Passover Dinner with wine pairing: matzoh ball soup with farfel, dill and mixed pickled vegetables; chilled smoked white fish spread with chive, matzoh, and haroset; braised short ribs with tzimmes, parsnip puree and horseradish vinaigrette; housemade chocolate almond cake with coconut cream and caramel; one bottle of san pell; two espressos: $193.84 after a $30 tip. Afterwards my stomach gave me trouble the entire night. Service by Elizabeth Y was excellent.
