We didn’t hit up Empress of China or the especially intriguing Floating Sushi Boat Restaurant (see below pics) spotted in San Francisco’s Chinatown last night, but we did go a little nuts with the family-style at Oriental Pearl. I loved the prawns in candied almonds and orange rinds, and the chicken in a crispy potato nest (literally), but my favorite shots of the night emerged on the walk over.
Floating sushi boat?
Hopelessly drawn to strings of lights
