Yesterday evening Lora, Serenity and I took the train to San Francisco for the Lunar New Year Parade. It was pretty good, though it's not something you need to see every year :-)
After the parade we went and had dinner at Tadich Grill, the oldest restaurant in California, founded by Croatians in 1849 and still owned by Croatians today, though there are no Croat dishes on the menu ;-/ The waiter said that they do serve Dalmatian stew from time to time, the menu changes regularly so you never know quite what you are going to get, it's always good food though!
"In 1849, an unassuming coffee stand was founded on the San Francisco waterfront. Enduring earthquakes, fires, and changes of name, location, and ownership, that establishment still stands, now known as the Tadich Grill, California’s oldest restaurant. The constants throughout the Tadich’s evolution have been hearty seafood and other local specialties, and the stewardship of Croatian American families. John Tadich immigrated to San Francisco in 1872 and started working at the then-called New World Coffee Saloon soon after, becoming sole owner in 1887. He sold the restaurant in 1928 to the Buich family, which has carried on the Tadich tradition ever since. A destination restaurant and a local treasure, the Tadich Grill continues to evoke an old-world feel."
