By our last night in San Francisco, we couldn’t bear the thought of eating more seafood, or really anything else. We were in one of those funks where we couldn’t decide what to have, but we didn’t want crap. I know, woe was us. Jason vaguely said, “I want something casual. With beer.” I remember lying on [...]
