9/21: from cycle touring to food touring

Got up. Ate an omelette slice cooked up by Drake with feta and tomatoes in it, and then a duck jerky stick from their local coop meat share (this is San Fran, after all).

We ate dimsum at Hong Kong Lounge in Inner Richmond. Without a doubt the best dimsum I've had in the US. I would qualify that style as lunch-oriented dishes, with no breakfast items like you might see at dimsum in southern China.

I then spent the early afternoon selling my bike. More on that later.

I rode with Drake on an easy circuit of the city, going up to Twin Peaks for some great views:

That tower again!:

Bison at the gardens:

Doing it on a nice light road bike made things so much easier.

For dinner, we went to a Greek festival, where I had
- gyro
- tiropita
- souvlakia
- sliced lamb
- moussaka
- calamari
it was delish.

Bo Shi and Boyuan hung out with me and Gabe late night at a sushi bar. The sushi was adequate. I tried monkfish liver, which was far more normal liver tasting than most fish livers I've had.
