Saturday around the Bay

waffles

Saturday morning we woke up early and met up with Nina, Kaylee and Mom at the Ferry Building for breakfast. My sister picked up some waffles and coffee from blue bottle coffee, and walked around the farmers market where i saw Chris Cosentino picking up some produce for what i assume his restaurant. I guess i should have gotten a picture with him and Alice to match Kaylee’s picture with him.

After breakfast we walked to Pier 39 and stopped by this little park to let Kaylee play on the slide, and Alice got her first ride as well.

It was a nice little French bistro where i enjoyed the fish and fried risotto balls, crab mashed potatoes, and their charcuterie plate. It was nice to be able to enjoy dinner without passing the kid back and forth taking turns to eat.
