Ghirardelli // San Diego Gaslamp District

OMG! Oh My Ghirardelli!!!
This is not your regular ice cream shop. It was old fashioned and awesome. Rileigh got the chocolate dipped waffle cone with cookies and cream ice cream. Jackson got an awesome warm chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. What a treat! Both were really good. The DC Burger Boys give this place a double thumbs up.

Le Garage // Sausalito

Le Garage is in Sausalito, a short ride from San Fran on the Golden Gate Ferry. This French Bistro is a little hard to find, but well worth it. The view is awesome, and the decor is really cool. This place is really a transformed garage. Rileigh got the kobe beef burger, it was juicy and good. Jackson got the 7-hour housemade ham sandwich which was probably the best thing to get. It was delicious with the lettuce, tomato, avocado, and bacon.

Kevin Allen and his staff are very friendly. Kevin gave our family many restaurant recommendations for the rest of our San Fran stay.

An extra treat was seeing Tory from
MythBusters just a couple tables from us. Our first celebrity siting on the west coast!

The Crumpet Shop Seattle

Scrumptious Crumpets!!! Wow! This was a last minute treat before we left Seattle and we are so glad that we didn't miss it. Jackson had a crumpet with eggs, cream cheese and ham. Rileigh had one with chocolate hazelnut spread, of course.

We could watch them making the crumpets from a large window. It was very cool. Rob L. and the staff are very friendly too. We wish we had a crumpet shop in DC!
