Le Soleil in the Richmond

We finally broke our jalopy and had to replace Ruth's ride which entailed a visit to City Kids (3rd and Clement), the only full service stop for baby wheels in the city. Great store, great staff, best quote of the week ("we should send lawyers to China, maybe that'll slow em down") and tons of strollers you can test drive with your critter. When you're about to plunk down that many dollars, you best make sure your feet aren't cracking into the frame. Across the street is the excellent Le Soleil Vietnamese restaurant. Delicious, affordable, baby friendly. They only have one high-chair, so Ruth sat in her first big-girl booster seat. Were it not for the noodles (which the waiter brought out upon request in about 18 seconds) she may have wiggled out. But she loved it and so did we. Yesterday we received a good farmer's market hint from Apartment No. One. If you visit the later in the day, you not only get great organics but they are discounted. That's news as good as free beer.
