new orleans

some memorable food moments from new orleans: fried oyster po-boy from felix's, and seafood and okra gumbo from the gumbo shop...



we also had splendid meals at the restaurant august, cochon and galatoire's. i'm so glad my hotel had a gym!

san francisco and napa valley

napa

i'd always dreamt of visiting the french laundry
