San Francisco, California

One of the best chineses restaurants in SF is called San Tung on 1310 Irving Street. They make handmade noodles, homemade dumplings, and their dry fried chicken is to die for, reasonably price and prepared to wait in line.

I enjoyed The Slanted Door tremendously, but it's a bit pricey.

On the cheaper-end I liked one of the Vietnamese Pho restaurants in Chinatown, can't remember the name though...

Next time I'm there I'll try San Tung , Thanks for the tip!

I enjoyed

The Slanted Door is great! One of my favourite restaurants in San Francisco along with Aqua, Farallon and Coi. My wife and I are both fans of the House of Nanking for casual Chinese when in the Bay Area. Trucker's cafes might put the decor to shame but the food is very good. I think for a relatively small city like San Francisco it has some incredible restaurants.

Some of my favourites: -Gordon Ramsay at Royal Hospital Road, London -The River Cafe, Brooklyn, NY -Per Se, Manhattan -Verre at Hilton Dubai Creek, Dubai -Molecular Bar at Mandarin Oriental, Tokyo -Aria, Sydney, Australia -Rasoi Vineet Bhatia, London I'm hungry!

Houston, TX... two different locations... one on Richmond by the galleria; the other somewhere on bellaire.

Name? Chinese Cafe!!!

What to get? Double spicy chicken, Double spicy beef, or mix it up and get both. Beef with chinese broccolli is very good most of the time... but a lot more mild than the rest. Feel free to tell them "less" or "no spicy" if you don't like spicy foods. Stuff is amazing...

Here in Central New York, we have many owner operated restaurants, where the owner is the Head Chef, and a graduate of a good culinary institute. You can choose from French cuisine, Italian, Greek, Indian, Polish, Irish, German, seafood, and good old American steak houses. They are so good that a number of franchise restaurants closed up because they could not compete with "the locals". A good example of this was the Weathervane Restaurant, which had a super location near the NY State Thruway exit at Utica , and had fresh seafood from Kittery, Maine, and not frozen. The manager told me that he had to show a profit after one year. When the store failed to meet that goal, it was shut down by headquarters, and the building was purchased by a local group that then served an Italian-American menu. It has been very successful since. Meantime, the Weathervane has been successful in Saratoga Springs and East Greenbush (near Albany, NY).

Hey, weird... I've eaten at San Tung as well and it was great. Wish I was eating there tonight. Better idea... send your G5 Citation down to Texas and pick me up, and if you do, I'll pay for dinner.

In Houston, I always like Hunan's on Post Oak.

But let's get serious.... Mexican food in San Antonio is pretty darn good, too. Tomatillo's and El Mirador are hard to beat. (Hmmmm...making a sound like Homer Simpson just thinking about Tomatillo's green sauce.)

      ShotScope LM1 ($200 Launch Monitor/Speed Radar)

      By Shindig · Posted

      I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By Shindig · Posted

      Well, this is interesting.  I think we discovered a few months ago that I haven't been following professional golf in a while (my confusion about Scotty's footwork confirmed that), so at least as I aim to follow a bit more I'll get something new to learn with all of you.  My very quick read of Erik's summary makes me think this new Challenger series fits somewhere between Korn Ferry and the Championship (not Champions, but I know I'm going to make that mistake a few times if I'm not careful!).   My recollection is that there were already second-tier events among the PGA Tour;  the Bob Hope didn't have the same quality of field as the event at Riviera (whose current name I forget, although now that I say that, I realize the Palm Springs event hasn't been called the Bob Hope in a few years either).   With the absence of the FedEx (if I'm reading that correctly), does that mean no more FedEx Cup at all? Hopefully I'll have time later in 2026 to sit down and see what we're in for in 2027, where one of my goals already is to follow more professional golf.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By iacas · Posted

      The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.
