Thank you Tina @tinazoant for taking us here Yum yum #H2HSFO #lacornetataqueria #BurlingameAve Happiness is when your kids are happy to be with their friends ! They spent the day in Great America.

Crepevine with Gretchen

By Heart2Heart | San Mateo | No Comments

My favorite street in our area is Burlingame Avenue. Hoping to try more restaurants in this area. My friend who lives here recommended Crepevine so I requested for this when a friend asked what I wanted to try.

Succulents
They have many things aside from crepes So happy to see another beautiful friend in the Bay area neighborhood – Gretchen Picache

I made sure I saw her this trip ! Even if she lives here I noticed she’s always tanned! Finally I found out why !! Everytime there’s sun she takes advantage and tans in her backyard after work! It’s also her quiet time alone and everyone in the house knows not to bother her at that time. Gretchen works in Stanford University and she told me she is thinking of moving back to Manila. Yipee! Maybe one day. She’s been living here for more than 10 years already. #H2HSFO #H2HPeople But best to try the crepes for the first time Tuscany Crepes – chicken breast with mushrooms, tomatoes, roasted almonds, provolone and pesto

I just asked the server what their bestseller was and this was it. #H2HSFO #crepevineburlingame

Love this couple! So sweet!!! Greg and June. June was my neighbor when we were kids and now in the States we are also neighbors. I used to visit her everyday. And until now I visit her. June is the sweetest ever!!!! She and her family are our family here too #H2HSFO #H2HPeople

Previous entry: Visiting Greg and June October 17, 2014 June is the reason I am a Trader Joe’s addict! She is the expert there. So many of the stuff she prepares especially the cheese are from TJ and I love them. I enjoy the cocktails we have at her place
I love her dates!! She removed the seed, cooked them with olive oil till a little crispy on sides and sprinkle sea salt. It’s yummy with cheese I love her colorful kitchen ( with background music ) and this time she cooked paella. Previous entry: Dinner by June October 17, 2014 By June (3) with Thea and Devon

Wakuriya

By Heart2Heart | San Mateo | No Comments

We were so happy to finally dine at Wakuriya. There are only 2 Michelin starred restaurants @michelinrestaurants in the Peninsula. For the past 3 years we have been trying to reserve and it’s so difficult because it only seats 16 and they are always booked. You have to reserve a month in advance and call at midnight. It’s a good thing my hubby is very persistent in calling and because there was a cancellation for tonight we were able to dine! Chef Katsuhiro Yamasaki and his wife Mayumi moved from Japan to the Bay Area and opened Wakuriya in 2008. Chef Katsuhiro has 13 years experience in Japan and is a gem here. They are the only 2 people in the resto plus one staff. Mayumi is the one answering the phone for reservations and she’s also serving in the restaurant. We had a 9 course dinner. So blessed to have witnessed such talent. #H2HSFO #Wakuriya #Michelinstar #H2HChefs #H2HPeople We had a special dinner at a place we have been trying to dine in for the past 3 years and apparently they too have been wanting to dine here – Wakuriya. What a nice way to celebrate Ernie’s birthday #H2HSFO #H2HPeople
