Intercontinental Boston Restaurants

Boston's new Intercontinental Hotel has a restaurant that is open 24/7, which is pretty interesting (and cool) given how early bars and restaurants in Boston usually close.

And I suppose the fact that the chef there is also a 2-star Michelin Chef there would be an interesting note for foodies too.

Misc SF Restaurants

A couple of my friends in the SF area really enjoy trying out restaurants and brought me to a couple of pretty good restaurants while I was visiting. I don't have the background to review them; I'm just listing them here so I won't forget.

A16 - Authentic Italian pizzas and cured meats.

Cafe Bastille - French Cafe cuisine

Kee Wah Bakery

Kee Wah Bakery is one of my parent's favorite bakeries in Hong Kong. They make buns daily, but also are known for their egg-rolls, wife-cakes, and other such cookie and pastry-like snacks.

My dad recently found one of their S. California locations and apparently they have a few more Cali locations in the US now (Location listings)

Oh, apparently you can order gift-boxes and cakes online through their website too.

Jiu Niang Tang Yuan

I was just introduced to a Chinese dish, called Jiu Niang Tang Yuan, the taste of which was as eye-opening as was tasting Peruvian food for the first time. I'll leave some links on the description of the stuff:
