We were there with a group of friends on a beautiful Sunday afternoon playing bocce. Everyone brought goodies and drinks to share. We engaged in Bocce game and it was “women” vs. “men” and the game got a bit competitive of course.


It is a great place to visit for those who love the outdoors!!

Flintstone House for Sale!

We've always loved the Flintstone house and this iconic Flintstone house in Hillsborough is for sale!!!

'Flintstones' House in Hillsborough Listed for $4.2M

It is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home perched in the hills over I-280 in Hillsborough. It is truly one-of-a-kind property and probably a once-in-a-lifetime to own the Flintstone house.

We recall when the home's exterior was off-white (which truly represented Flintstones Home and has been painted a rusty orange shade.

The house was created by architect William Nicholson as an experiment in innovative building materials. The rounded forms are made by spraying a kind of concrete on metal frames molded over balloons. Most call it the Flintstone House, but it's also deemed the Barbapapa House after the circular, shape-shifting creatures featured in a children's book from the 1970s.

Truly an unique investment opportunity of a lifetime!

Exotic Uni Experience

Have you ever had the freshest Uni ever??? Yes, you heard me, freshest uni!


If you've ever enjoyed the fine diversity of Japanese cuisine, and are a serious sushi connoisseur, you have probably experienced the singular love of uni-a type of sushi made from the gonads of a sea urchinIt is an acquired taste and when you eat live uni, it brings the experience to another level!

Apparently, Uni has a "euphoria-causing chemical" ingredient similar to what you find in cannabis! Yes, pot, marijuana, etc. (Interesting!!!)

At Tomokatsu in Burlingame, you get to experience the freshest live uni you can find.

In addition, Tomokatsu has other great food that you don’t normally see at other Japanese restaurant…such as crab porridge, which is one of our favorites as well.
