Breakfast at home: sourdough toast with salted butter, plain yogurt with mexican vanilla, flax meal, toasted coconut, roasted and slivered almonds, sliced half banana; hot water. Recharge Medical website work all day: photos: coolsculpting, botox; more Shortcode Gallery++ styling. Lunch: Nongshim tonkatsu-flavored ramen with black garlic oil to which I added assorted fish cake. This ramen was thicker and richer than my liking. Midafternoon snack: one stalk of celery with unsalted peanut butter, water. Walked and rode Muni to dinner Arquet. Cocktails: tubthumper for Patrick, golden lucky for me. We shared: appetizers: dungeness crab brioche (with meyer lemon and dill, no caviar), ricotta dumplings (with green garlic, sweet corn, chanterelle), scallion fry bread (with buffalo ricotta, honeycomb, grilled figs, salsa macha); mains: liberty duck confit (five spice, kimchi, asian pear, furikake), mount lassen trout (white miso mustard, artichoke, blue lake beans); dessert: thai tea ice cream. All food and drink and service by Sarah were excellent. Walked and rode Muni home.
