Sorry about the fuzziness of some pictures; I took them with my cell
phone.

| Lunch at Father's Office
|
|
|
|
|
| Father's Office's extensive
beer menu. I love that they describe each beer. The language they use
is similar to that used in sophisticated wine shops.
| Some of Father's Office beer taps.
Read the fun fact, then read the next sentence for the answer.
According to the web, some beer is trapped in men's facial hair. In
aggregate, in Great Britain that comes to 162,719 pints of beer.
| Yet more beer taps. Sorry about the fuzzy picture.
I'm amused by the "forgotten cocktails" menu.
| Bone marrow, to be eaten with a spoon on bread, accompanied by a salad.
Again, sorry about the fuzzy picture.

| My burger, properly cooked, sat on French bread. I like it when joints
do something more exciting with a burger than a basic hamburger bun.

| Will Rogers State Historic Park

|
|
| The view from Will Rogers
State Historic Park's Inspiration Point toward downtown. Who
would've thought that there'd be so many trees so close to L.A.?
| Another perspective: looking south toward the various beaches (Santa
Monica, etc.). The haze this day is due to ocean fog, not smog.

| Dinner at Sakura
|
|
|
|
|
| Even though we arrived at Sakura before 6pm, not long after they opened,
there already was a line out the door. I'm told it always has a line.
| salmon - very good and freshtuna - finelangostine
(baby lobster) - fine
| black cod - succulent. Very good. We devoured half of it before I
remembered to take a picture.
| Perhaps the longest pieces of unagi I've ever seen. Good.

I photographed a quite-good roll-like thing they called senbei. It
included crispy rice, perhaps some fish (tuna?), avocado, and more.
| Salad and soup.
