    WOW WEEEE .... here I sit in my studio apartment in San Francisco watching you explorer my city. What a hoot. I'm glad that you enjoyed many of your eateries. There are many great places to enjoy Dim Sum in San Francisco. Many not in Chinatown. If you want a fun eating experience the next time you visit, try a "progressive meal" on Clement Street. You can research before you arrive which places to try. Just an idea. jmo

    You guys should do a clam chowder shoot-out. Make the drive to Half Moon Bay for Sam's Chowder House, my personal favorite. They're considered the best by most. Throw in The Old Clam House in SF...the oldest restaurant in San Francisco...thicker chowder but also very good. Then of course some of the Fisherman's Wharf restaurants like Boudins. That would be cool to watch! I'd be interested to see which one you guys like best.

    one thing i have noticed about ABC and CBC is that even though they don't speak much Chinese, they at least know and eat real Chinese food. i think its the influence of the parents and grand parents . My kids are like this . their Chinese is very limited, but they will just eat about any Chinese dish from pig intestine to preserved tofu . i have been to SF Chinatown a few times and thought it was just a tourist trap. The Chinese food was subpar in my opinion. Like many places with a large Chinese community most off the Chinese no longer live in Chinatown and the best food is in the surrounding areas . I believe SF has 2 other " Chinatowns" outside the main one .

    That Dim Sum place isn't the best in SFChinatown, Bill you know nothing about Chinese foods.The Tea house on Pacific is way better. Also, the bridge you mentioned that you walked thru was not a bridge, but a tunnel. If you would've asked around, there's a Cable Car very near your Dim Sum place that you could've caught It would've taken you right down to the heart of Fisherman's Wharf. San Francisco bridge. We have several bridges in the Bay Area. The 2 major ones are the Golden Gate & 2nd is the Bay Bridge.

You're correct, B meant tunnel, and L was referring to the Golden Gate. We most always just do one takes, so do we make mistakes? You betcha! lol We also thought about taking the cable car, but opted to walk. Thanks for watching!
