After Sharon's early morning appointment in midtown, we headed to San Francisco to celebrate Jack's 27th birthday. With a quick stop to change drivers and light traffic, we were into the city by 12:15 pm. We are spending one night at the Luma Hotel, a small boutique hotel near Oracle Park. Our room was actually ready.After getting settled in the room, we walked past Oracle Park and along The Embarcadero to the Waterbar Restaurant. We met Jack for lunch. After splitting some oysters, I had Shellfish Bisque [brioche croutons, lemon crème fraîche] and Confit Tuna Salad [lemon ricotta, summer squash, pickled nectarines, hook & line caught out of San Diego, California]. Jack had some mussels and Maine Lobster Roll [aïoli, brioche roll, old bay french fries, trap caught out of Casco Bay, Maine]. Sharon had Seared Dorade [italian butter beans, roast peppers, spring onion vinaigrette open ocean raised of the coast of Greece].
The three of us walked back to the hotel after lunch. Eventually, we wandered to Oracle Park to see the San Francisco Giants versus the Baltimore Orioles Major League Baseball Game. I had gotten club level seats for the game (section 219, row H, seats 8, 9 and 10.).
Willy Adames and Luis Matos each had four of San Francisco's 18 hits. Dominic Smith homered and drove in four runs. Smith’s home run landed in McCovey Cove, beyond the right-field wall. It was the 107th “Splash Hit” in the ballpark’s 26-season history. The Giants extended their winning streak to six with a 15-8 romp over the Baltimore Orioles on Friday night.
It was a very nice evening. The weather was beautiful. Sharon said that it was the most that she had ever enjoyed a baseball game!
After the game, the three of us wandered back to the hotel. It was after 11 pm by the time we crashed in the room.
