Savor - a lovely day

In honor of Father's Day and because we have two daughters living in San Francisco, we decided to have brunch yesterday to avoid a big crowd today. It took me most of the morning to slowly get ready to go and then we were in our comfy Beeson Bus for the drive to the city. First stop, we picked up Mandi and then Beckie so she could direct us to the restaurant - she has really gotten to know her way around the as she works in different areas of the city. We took her recommendation for SAVOR  - in the Noe Valley neighborhood of SF. Ron was able to drop me off within 10 steps of the front door and then he was off to find parking - it's San Francisco - always a challenge to park our bus.

Can you believe I didn't take any pictures of the food? I am totally off my game, but I did get some photos of us and that's the important part, right? Because I am not a food critic...but the food was delicious. My appetite has been off but I ordered the Golden Gate Salad with a filet of Salmon - it was so good and just what I needed. The enormous mimosa was pretty tasty too. I don't remember what everyone else ate, but I do know that their plates were all as empty as mine when the waitress came to clear our table! The ambiance in the restaurant was great, the food was good and we were never rushed.

It was good to get out of the house for a bit and to spend some time with our girlies. Here are a few snaps from the day....
