Tommy’s Joynt SF

Posted on October 17, 2008September 28, 2021 by Hijiri

I’ve always loved Tommy’s Joynt wall graphics as well as their food. I was staying at a hotel that was a few blocks away from here so I walked by few times and took some pictures and we went in for late night dinner one night, too. It is always the same atmosphere, same big meaty food, same great wall!

Inside is filled with old beer signs and drink signs, it is like a museum.

Off to San Francisco

I am going back to San Francisco this weekend (leaving in 4-5 hours or so!) — oh my god, I am so excited! We’re going to see lots of friends, going to see Haruki Murakami speak, I’m stopping by my old agency and see everyone there, going to many places I love, eat lots of yummy food… I’ll come back with lots of San Francisco coolness and inspirations so please come back again on Wednesday or Thursday next week. (I have to go right back to the agency when I get home late on Tuesday night so) Wishing everyone a happy weekend!

Here are a couple images that I took on my last day in San Francisco back in December 2007. I’ll come back with more so just a glance here…

and I know exactly what this song means now (hehe):

The Beach House

As I mentioned, Randy’s families own 2 beach houses there for… Randy doesn’t even know how long, but for a long long time and so there are so many cute vintage beach-esque stuff and they are just so adorable and they definitely make the house more special.
