It was my birthday this week, and I spent it in San Francisco. I went to the Asian Art Museum to see the Japanese art exhibition, and admired some lovely ceramics (this is a birthday peach from a Chinese plate),
and some Japanese sculptures and painted screens.
I walked through the civic centre and then on to the Hayes Valley to look at some pretty boutiques...
...and then in the evening we went to Sons & Daughters, a lovely little restaurant in Nob Hill. The service was delightful, the food exquisite. I drew each dish in the tasting menu as it came out...
and took some photos of the colours and presentation. Yum in every way.
my birthday!
