Moving Day

I’m moving in with my good friend Diana and am pretty excited about it. My landlord asked me why I didn’t recruit my friends to help me move, and I told him that I’m not that mean. I hired movers this time, because frankly my desk is too big and heavy to carry down 5 flights of stairs, and also I don’t want to deal with finding parking for a U-Haul in my new neighborhood. The movers thought it was funny that I packed most of my belongings in double-bagged, kitchen-sized trash bags.

I’m a little sad though, because when I moved to San Francisco two years ago, I really thought that the next time I moved it would be to my newly-renovated Greenwich Village condo that would somehow magically pay off itself. What can I say? I dream big.

Since I haven’t eaten since 9am, I think I’m justified to rank my neighborhood haunts. I’m so hungry that the playing field is level and I’m not leaning towards any particular cuisine tonight. So here is a list of my favorite restaurants in the Inner (and parts of the Outer) Richmond.

1. Burma Superstar
2. Sushi Bistro
3. Shabu House
4. Han Il Kwan
5. Kabuto
6. Khan Toke
7. My Tofu House
8. Good Luck Dim Sum
9. Brothers

    MMM I love Brothers! That was the Korean restaurant I went to when their roof caught on fire, and everyone remained in the restaurant eating bc it was so good. The firemen yelled at us.

    I miss you Mindy!

  • Helena says:

    Oooh most of those are my favorites too. Some of them I haven’t tried but hopefully will sometime. You should try Okina, it’s really good!

  • jason says:

    You should have told your landlord that you don’t have friends. I never got to eat at a place called Good Luck Dim Sum… lucky!

Hi, I'm Mindy. People who meet me and then happen to stumble upon my blog are usually surprised that I have things to say because I'm quiet. Yes, I actually have thoughts. I have feelings and emotions too, believe it or not. more ↓

People who know me will say that I’m loud, too nice for my own good, and show signs of someone with a mild case of autism.

I grew up with two older brothers and no friends, which means my childhood was spent bouncing between PC, NES, and Playstation games. I consider myself a casual gamer– I never leave home without my DS. My favorite video game character will always be Quina Quen from Final Fantasy 9.

Once upon a time, I studied abroad in Paris and loved it so, so much. I think about Paris on a bi-hourly basis. I now live in San Francisco, but hope to move to New York someday.

The name of my website comes from a Teen Girl Squad episode.

I love pugs, Kinder Eggs, traveling, and shy people.

I don’t like spiders, horseradish, driving, and being shy. less ↑
