oo those sky beds are nice. Working at Boeing I got to see lots of mock-up airplanes with really nice seats, beds and bathrooms. I even saw one with a shower. I met with some of the Qantas people when they came to visit Boeing.

A shower would be cool! I love SIA’s seats the best.. the ones in Raffles Class, that’s like luxury defined πŸ™‚

I love the look of those airline meals! Much better than what I’ve ever seen! How cool seeing Kirsten Dunst! πŸ™‚ You know you’re in LA when you start spotting celebrities!

The rest of the trip was SO AWFUL I’m still shaken by it… going to lie down for a bit now, only just got into the hotel :X

I’m going to Valley Fair sooooooon!!! AHHH maybe I’ll see you in LV πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‰

If you need restaurant recommendations, I can give you plenty for most cities within the Bay Area πŸ™‚

I’m not going today.. just posted an entry why. But I think I’ll go during the week after work πŸ™‚

Oooo I’d LOVE recommendations!! I already have Ihop and A&W on the list πŸ™‚

I just got online now, so this is why my reply is so delayed πŸ˜›

Hmm, so it seems like you’re fairly willing to drive around πŸ™‚ I’ll just list a few general places for you to try:

Shiki Sushi: Sunnyvale. I got here almost every Friday and their sashimi is one of the best that I’ve ever had. Don’t be hesitant to eat anything here, everything is so delicious. Blowfish at Santana Row is more pricey, and from what I’ve heard isn’t as good. (www.shiki4seasons.com)

Another sushi places is Sushi House: Alameda. It’s fairly far north on 880, but if you’re willing to drive and wait, it’s also well worth it. If you end up going, I highly recommend the cherry blossom and their tuna sashimi. (www.e-sushihouse.com)

E&O Trading Co.: Downtown San Jose. Most people would consider this place fairly “pricey”. I don’t go here as often as Shiki, but the food here is so wonderful. If you’ve been to an E&O before, then you can skip this place πŸ˜› They have really delicious oven-baked naan, corn fritters, and desserts πŸ˜‰ (www.eotrading.com)

Macaroni Grill: Milpitas. Simple, good sized portions of Italian food. I usually order their Grilled (Teriyaki) Salmon that comes with orzo pasta. If you’re craving pasta, you can order any of the ones on the menu and often times you can’t go wrong making a customized plate of pasta either πŸ™‚ (www.macaronigrill.com)

Coldstone Creamery: Inside Valley Fair or Fremont. If you haven’t had ice cream here yet- you must!!! My favorites are the banana caramel crunch or birthday cake remix. (www.coldstonecreamery.com/main/index.asp)

Tapioca Express: Milpitas, Newark, Union City, and Fremont. I’m not sure if there are any in Australia, but you have to go have a drink of their tapioca milk tea. It’s just black tea with milk and bobas/pearls. It’s kind of a trendy teeny-bopperish place, so you might not want to hang around there too long at times. If you do go, pleeeeeease do not go to the one in Fremont- their milk tea is really disgusting, it tastes so watered down~ yech. I recommend the Milpitas or Newark location. (www.tapiocaexpress.ws)

Baja Fresh: Santa Clara, I believe the other one is in San Jose. It’s just Mexican food, but with a “healthier, grill” twist πŸ˜› Their tortilla soup is really good! Hmm, I usually get their burritos or tacos πŸ™‚ (www.bajafresh.com/jump.jsp?itemID=0&itemType=HOME_PAGE)

I hope that helps you~ sorta. Feel free to IM me on vennatangerine on AOL Instant Messenger anytime πŸ™‚ Oh!! Also, I hope that you’ve gone to Pizza Antica!! It gets so busy but their pizza is really good πŸ™‚

Ooooooooooooo thanks heaps!!! I bookmarked this πŸ™‚

Yeah I love pizza Antica.. amazing pizzas :)~ If you go back to 2 weeks ago you’ll see all my entries about my week in SJ!
