Dayantha’s Birthday Weekend

It was Dayantha’s 34th birthday a few days ago and he came down to SF to do some celebrating.  On Friday night, we all met up for happy hour and dinner.  It’s so nice to have the 4 boys back together again.

We also made a phone call to Yoon since it was her actual birthday that evening.  Sounded like she was enjoying her birthday at a water park.  Aw…I just saw her in June and miss her already.

On Saturday, a few of us went to the 2nd Annual SF Street Food Festival in the Mission.  I went last year and it was a crowded disaster.  This year had a lot of improvements but it was still packed with people wondering if they’re waiting in the correct line. I made it to Hapa Ramen and got a taste of their cold soba salad and a bowl of ramen with shredded pork.

Afterward, we walked down to Dynamo Donuts to try their Maple Bacon donut but they were sold out.  Dayantha was hoping to taste it since it was on an episode of Food Network’s “Best Thing I Ever Ate”.  Oh well, we instead got to try the vanilla bean donut and the blueberry cornmeal donut.  They were both pretty yummy.

Before heading home, we also stopped for ice cream at Humphry Slocombe.  We had to stand in a pretty long line but I thought it was worth the wait.  You know me and my ice cream…

On Saturday night we met up again in Japan Town for a late-night Korean BBQ dinner and karaoke just like old times.  The food was tasty but our singing was not what it used to be.

I left the place saying “I’m too old for this stuff.”  Here are the rest of the photos.  Happy Birthday Dayantha!
